Re: Digging Rag
it is not a law as far as i know but just good practics not to dig for them from halloween untill march as this is there spawing time and allowes for the stocks of them to recover after all the digging in the summer months but not many people stick to this most of the tackel shops still sell worms during this time

Totally agree, lug is a better winter bait, only problem is getting it, digging lug during the cold months is hard work. I know a guy who spent 2 hours digging 35 lug last week.
The finest gift you can give a fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"
