A quick how to video on fishing with live worms including tips on hooking. Worms are one of the best freshwater baits for lakes, rivers, creeks, and ponds, and catch bass, bluegill, trout, catfish, carp, and many other species! Definitely, my favorite bait when I just want to catch fish!
I hope these tips and tricks help you catch more fish! Part of the beginner fishing basics series. Best of luck fishing!!
Amazon.com Links to my favorite beginner lures:
1. Inline Spinner: amzn.to/2IL8iLk
- Use with 4-8lb test on light action rod and reel
-Catches bass, crappie, bluegill, trout, and tons of other species
2. Square bill Crankbait: amzn.to/3f2h0jU
- Use with 8-14lb test line. Great for bass!
Thanks for watching!

  • Excellent video Zach, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I haven't had much luck using worms and, after watching this video, I think I understand why now. I used to just put the worms on the hook piercing the worm maybe three times. I had too much of the hook exposed. I definitely need to get out there and get a line wet and give worms another try. Thanks again. Stan

  • The old school way to put that bobber on the line, was a bit different. Take the line coming from your pole, and hook it under the bobber bottom (white part), run the line over the bobber, and hook it to the bobber top (red part), then run it back down, and hook it again, to the bottom (white part). Now, the line goes from the fishing pole to the bobber bottom, and from the bobber bottom to the hook. The bobber won't slide on the line by itself, and it will sit upright in the water (not lying on it's side).

    • If they’re under 6 pounds. I prefer lighter line in freshwater. 6-10 lbs. Even if I hook into a larger channel or carp, the only time I get a break is if they get tied up and rub on something. My best advice for just starting is just figure out what works for you. Throw in a couple different setups and see what you like and what you catch with what. Worms are fun because almost anything will eat a worm.

  • Really like your channel. I finally learned what circle hook I need to use with worms for catfishing. This has been a problem for me lately. I wish I had seen your videos sooner. I was using a 2 Oz weight. But not getting out far enough fir the catfish. So lm going to try a 4 Oz or larger, a slip sinker I think and maybe use two hooks. I don't think I can get shad right now but might be able to get Frozen shrimp.

  • Fishing off the bottom: use a Carolina rig with a 1/O hook (next size up from size 1) and thread the whole worm on there, hook it a bunch of times. You can even use two worms if you want Fishing off the top: Use a size one hook then after getting the hook on, put a tiny split shot a foot above the hook, then a bobber 2-5 feet above that. Only thread on about half a worm since smaller fish will nibble off your bait when fishing top-water

  • I prefer the Patrick F. McManus way of getting worms. Invite your fishing buddy to go fishing with you in Your Boat and have him join you at Your House. When he gets there inform him that something came up and while You are loading the boat, fixing sandwiches, drying your fishing togs, whatever, He can be digging up the worms at the place you have in mind of planting your spring garden ( just don't tell Him this though ). After you have finished your fixing and eating your big breakfast and putting up your dishes (no sense in letting the cat out of the bag) you can saunder out and tell him about the box of worms you found in the garage fridge and that it's time to go fishing. It is recommended to have Several fishing buddies because unless your buddy is really thick or can easily overpower you this ploy will not work. BTDT a painful lesson, believe me.
