Question for you worm pickers…all the worms I see on my driveway are really small. Very rarely do I see one bigger than a trout worm.
Are you guys finding night crawler sized worms on pavement?

Sure do! The park entrance road and parking lot were littered  with them the other morning.
If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Hmmm…I have nightcrawlers in my yard, lots of them. I guess they are happy where they are in the grass and aren’t looking to travel…

During the middle of night I get tons of crawlers on the pavement. By morning they mostly disappear leaving the red worms behind. After sun up I look for parking lots with curbs that they can't climb back into the grass. Corners with leaves are hot spots. I don't do it to save cash. I just do it cause I've been doing it since the 1900's and just don't know any better.

Well since your 122 years old, I’m not sure your back will make it much longer either way…. :P

Most of the park I go to ( a mile away) is soccer fields. Light rain brings up the little ones. A good soaker brings out the big ones.

I only keep them till the end of May or so. Beyond that I’m either carp fishing or have the fly rod in hand.

Was going to go out and get some last night but fell asleep on the couch and woke up at the stroke of today. I decided I'd give them a break.
