A lot of worm breeders have already been into raising worms for bait, since there's a definite market for doing it.
Not only is it a great money-making venture, breeding and raising worms definitely has its other benefits too.
How to Start So, how to raise worms exactly? Well, if you want to breed and raise your own batch of worms, you're going to have to buy probably a few hundred worms first.
Now, if you don't know which kind of worm to use, then you can pick from either the red wriggler kind, or the nightcrawler type.
But if you were to compare these two, nightcrawlers are more preferred over red worms, especially when it comes to fishing.
Nightcrawlers tend to be more active on the fish hook (with all its constant movements, and of its twisting and turning) even when submerged in longer periods under the water.
On the other hand, red wigglers composting type are definitely more preferred for composting purposes, but then again, that's a different topic.
Although red worms can still be used as live bait food for different kinds of animals (birds, fish, some reptiles, and amphibians).

You may purchase your start-up batch in a local bait shop, or from gardening stores online (there are a variety of stores to choose from).
