Old Lucky told me to head to the pond after a nice rain and get some 'snake worms'. Some are 20"+ OMG. They were everywhere! What are these things?

Nice bunch of worms. How many of em did you get? Judging by their width they should be really good on a hook. Can't wait to see the results.

You'll make a killing with them. Might I suggest buying a small bag of top soil to put them in.

We have those all over here too. Been fishing with them since I was a kid. I had no idea it was an "invasive" species and not native.

The first introduction being worms that were within the root balls of plants brought by European explorers.

From wikipedia: "A total of approximately 182 earthworm taxa in 12 families are reported from America north of Mexico, i.e., USA & Canada, of which 60 (ca. 33%) are exotic/introduced."
