Wasn't really throwing it away just leaving it for other anglers who know what it is and what there doing with it

Re: Worm ID?
Lol you can come bait digging with me any time lol you do the work i get the worm.
difference between black and the mroe common blow lug would be black lug are found at the low tide mark, have a straight or j shaped burrow while blow will have a u shaped burrow.

If it's black lug it will leave a yellowish stain on your hands after touching them.
