Medium confidence
6/10
Reliable and versatile catfish bait, but data is limited.
Earthworm shows consistent effectiveness across three solo reports (average rating 4/5) exclusively for catfish in July using bottom and spinning techniques. Combo reports (rating 3.7/5) demonstrate more mixed results and do not allow clear attribution of success to the bait alone. One report (No. 6, rating 2/5) indicates failure with carp in silted conditions, suggesting dependence on location quality and water conditions rather than the bait itself.
Best conditions
Summer months (July), varied cloud cover and clarity, moderate wind 11–15 km/h
Best target fish
Catfish (3 of 3 solo reports); also capable on crucian carp and bream in combo scenarios
- Earthworm proved particularly effective for catfish in summer (July); try it first for bottom fishing on currents with moderate wind
- In combo scenarios (multiple baits), results are less predictable; use as primary bait rather than as an additional option
- Water quality is critical: in silted ponds (report No. 6) even good bait won't save the day; choose fresh, deep spots with good aeration
Solo sample is very small (n=3), all catfish in July. No data for other seasons or fish species in solo format. Combo reports (n=3) mostly contain multiple competing baits, which does not allow clear determination of earthworm's role. Additional data needed to assess effectiveness against crucian carp, bream, and in colder months.
