Lob worms (garden earth worms)

Are they any good for sea fishing (from the shore)? Never tried it before,
but if they're any good, might give it a bash.

Cheers!

The salt sucks the water out of them in a couple of minutes. They lose
their wriggle-attraction in no time and their flavour must leach out all in
ine go. They're probably of some use for floundering in estuaries or for
baiting a spoon but only if you're willing to change baits every couple of
minutes. One garden bait that I have used in the sea with a certain amount
of success is slugs - they still go flat but the big ones have enough bulk
that the process takes a lot longer, enough time for something to find them.

Cheerio,
