Or so I've been told. Everyone knows that a Yellowstone guide can, at best, summon clouds of mosquitoes; but never a mayfly, caddis, or stone.

If I had a choice between watching Lefty cast and seeing a seminar on worm summoning - Lefty would be mighty loneseome. I just hope you don't sport them deep blue eyes like Freemen - or hail from Arakis.

If interested, you can Google up "earthworms damage forests" and learn how earthworms (actually a non-native "invasive" species accidentally brought from Europe and Asia) do irreparable damage to our native hardwood forests by munching up all the seedling, wildflowers, ferns and organic "duff" on which new growth is nourished. Forests are permanently affected, and Minnesota is especially hard hit. The blame goes to those nasty bait anglers who bring in worms and then dump them at the end of the day. This isn't old news, but it's still a little known fact. Bait fishermen have many sins to answer for, but this may prove to be the worst.

That's the way we'd collect worms back in the Fla panhandle when I was a kid. The grunter's hands will get awful sore rubbing that iron against the wooden stobb, but that was dad's job. I doubt the trick would work out here in Sonoma Co. Too dry. Don’t laugh, it works! That’s the way we’d collect worms back in the Fla panhandle when I was a kid.
