I started beach worming 40 years ago. I started with pliers but haven't used them for 39 years. Ditch the pliers and use your fingers. More productive and more enjoyable.
I’ve tried it multiple times hey with no luck I just don’t have the technique for it haha seen people do it and they’ve taught me but I’m no chance hey
@@ReelFishing765 As the worm starts reaching for your bait, SLOWLY slide your fingers into the sand about 20mm BELLOW it's head. Then SLOWLY move your fingers in until you can feel the worm's body. You must not have any sand between your fingers and the worm. As the worm reaches up and arches it's back to pull the bait down, increase the pressure and pull it out. No sudden movements is the Key. It is amazing how much pressure you can apply without it pulling back as long as you do it slowly. You will never beat a worm with speed. The other thing is once you have the worm moving upward, keep it moving. Eventhough you have a good hold of it, if you stop the worm moving up, it can lock itself in the sand and break itself off. This is particularly true of big worms. If you only have it out a few inches and stop, it's a tug of war which usually ends with the worm pulling straight through your fingers or breaking itself off. When you use your fingers worming is as much fun or more than the fishing itself. It's worth persevering. Good luck.
Really love your work mate! keep it up. i look forward to your videos every week, as someone that's fished the hacking since I was 6 or 7 I'm still learning new things from you. Enjoy the long weekend brother!
Good vid cheers
No worries 😌

@@stevelenovo5774 thanks mate might have to give it another go
Metho and red food colouring. Dip them in for 30 secs. Best i find. Then freeze them. Great video bud...
Yeah I have used that before a good way to do it
Nice work mate. 👍 Were did you get your pliers from man I can't find them anywhere.??
They are Alvey worming pliers if you google them, you can buy them online at some tackle stores
Most bait and tackle shops along the coast have them , inland fish tackle shops cater for fresh water fishing mostly.
@@fishmuti called to a lot of tackle places they dont have it that would be nice if you can tell any tackle shop that it sells
first time ive ever seen a "beach worm". cool. what do ya catch on them?
Any fish on the beach and rivers eat them
They mainly eat fish octos and pipis. I imagine they wouldnt taste too bad
Good instructional video.
Just look at them teeth on those damn things 😁.
Thanks mate :)
