HOW TO GROW FISHBAIT AT HOME WITH NO EFFORT


Mealworms are easy to grow at home. These come in two sizes -
small and giant. I like the small's, but I have a buddy who
grows the giant's. Get a new 5 gallon bucket (no lid). Buy
these from your fastfood places for around $1.00. Then go to
the bait shop and buy a couple of boxes of the size mealworms
that you want to grow. Do not mix them!

I started mine with a big box of Kroger Cost Cutter Oats, but
Quaker Oaks will do. I now use hog brand meal. We buy one
hundred pounds (several of us split it) for $6.00 from a farm
supply place.

Now fill the bucket about 1/4 full of meal. Dump in the worms
(the more you start with the better). I got about 1,000 from a
friend. Now slice up a potato and throw it in (you can use
apples, fresh corn cobs). What we're looking for here is
something to hold moisture. I use only potatoes.

Buy some nylon screening from the hardware store to cover the
top. You do not have to tie it in place. The bugs do not fly.
Now the worms will turn into grubs, then black bugs, then die.
It will look like nothing's in there (wait). Feed potatoes and
meal when you think it's necessary. I add 1 potato per week
now, plus a cup or two of meal. Leave old stuff in bucket. The
stuff that looks like powdered residue are eggs -that's your
next crop.

This process takes a couple of months, but you will have worms
of all sizes, black bug and grubs eventually. I fish with the
worms and grubs. I ice fish mostly with the grubs and smaller
worms.
