Nuclear Wax Worms

[RangerDog]

I read a small article in the Dec. In-Fisherman about live glowing wax worms. I don't remember who was making them. Has anybody heard anything more about them?

Midwest Wax Worms.

You can see them at
Hooked On Fishing Bait & Tackle in Rochester.

I have a hunch they will be a hot deal this winter.

Not sure if they will be widely available or not, so demand may outreach supply? I spent 20 minutes on the net yesterday trying to locate them, the link Rick posted was the only one I found.

I would love to try them on deep-water perch yup-yup. I bet they sucker them ><sUMo> perch in great.

Glow Wax Worms:

The waxworms are available in the following colors: red, natural, pink,
chartreuse, orange, and blue. Retail price is $4.95 per tub of 40, shipping
charge would be actual. These work in both open water and frozen water
conditions - they really glow well!

CNY Tim, what exactly makes them glow? Is this substance hazardous to the enviroment?

Thanks

Just wondering if they are similar to those green night-crawlers? I hate those things because they turn my hands, boat, and everything they touch green. Whatever works though...

Hi Guys,

Rick told me you had a thread going on these waxworms. They are not like the green nightcrawlers which turn your hands green. These waxies look and feel just like other waxies, but they really glow!!!
I suspect this will be a hugh seller this winter for ice fishing, but I've already sold several in the 2 days since they came in.
According to several fishing publications, they work extremely well in stained water conditions and for night fishing.
I'll be happy to work with anyone that needs to have these shipped to them.

Good Fishing,
Mike

Hooked on fishing, could you respond to my ? above Thanks.

The food they eat is impregnated with a special substance that causes the glow. I do not know exactly what the substance is, but it must be unique because they have a patent on it. I am sure it does not hurt anything or the government would have refused the patent.

Good Fishing,
Mike

I'm willing to try them. Anybody know the cost? First they add color to maggots, now glow. Should be interesting.

Good Fishin, Matt.

Has any body tried theese before and noticed any improvement in catching fish compared to just a normal waxworm?
