Oh my gosh does that bring back memories.

Back in the 60's my parents took us to Minnesota (from Kansas City) for a fishing vacation every summer.

My dad had a hand crank generator, which he used to "excite " the local earthworms from the ground .

We would collect them, feed them for a couple of weeks, and then ship the worms in a box covered in ice in the trunk of the car 600 miles.

So, I guess those Missouri worms caught fish better than the native Minnesota worms.
