Do fish like earthworms?
All Fish Love Them While worms don’t necessarily exist naturally in the water, most freshwater fish still can’t resist their wigging action and scent. I’ve caught a wide variety of fish using worms, including walleye, trout, bass, bluegill and catfish.

Worms. The common earthworm is a universal bait for freshwater angling. Grubs, maggots, grasshoppers, bees, and ants are used as bait in trout fishing, although many anglers believe that roe is superior to any other bait.

Do fish bite lures at night?
In general, fish the same areas at night that you are finding fish during the day. Bass won’t move long distances just for the night. The lures I use most at night are spinnerbaits, topwater, jigs/plastics, crankbaits, and swimbaits. They can be fished at any depth, in most cover, and appeal to inactive fish at night.
Does light attract fish at night?
Any light under the water, no matter what the color, will attract fish. When lights are placed under the water, they reflect off particles in the water. These tiny little particles enhance a natural food source for bait. Once the bait fish are attracted, they bring in bigger game fish like snook, tarpon, and bass.
