The Benefits of Using European Nightcrawlers for Fishing

Active Worms
Our European Nightcrawlers are fresh, lively, and full of energy — exactly what fish can’t resist and what anglers love to use. Although relatively new to the Australian fishing scene, European Nightcrawlers (Eisenia hortensis) have quickly earned a reputation as one of the best worms for bait. Larger than common red composting worms but smaller than scrub worms, they’re the ideal size for fishing in a wide variety of conditions.
Tough, Durable, and Long-Lasting
European Nightcrawlers have thicker skin than other worms, making them one of the most versatile bait worms in the world. They perform equally well in fresh or brackish water and are so hardy that Canadian ice fishermen rely on them because they stay active even after long periods in freezing water. Their durability means they remain wriggly and attractive on the hook for longer, forcing fish to work harder to take the bait and increasing your chances of landing a catch.
Effective for All Fish, Anywhere
Whether you’re chasing Bream in Spring Creek, Redfin at Wurdiboluc, Trout in the Otways, or Murray Cod in the river, European Nightcrawlers are a reliable all-round bait. Their size, strength, and liveliness make them irresistible to a wide variety of species. Once you try them, you’ll quickly see why they’re becoming the go-to worm for anglers across Australia.
