[QUOTE="Allthingsterrarium, post: 195792, member: 3930"] On occasion I like to get hornworms for my terrarium animals. I wish I could more often but in my experience they can get somewhat pricey. I think they're fantastic, especially when you can get a tub of them and let them grow. They're definitely my bearded dragons' favorite treat but pretty much all of the terrarium creatures get excited about them. Still, whenever I buy them I start wondering how they would hold up to another big hobby of mine. Has anyone ever tried them as bait? Especially when they become a problem in the garden? They seem like they would be perfect! Big, soft and juicy and we already know reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates love them! I bet they would be good for really hot days when the fish are feeling sluggish and too lazy to chase minnows. I know largemouth bass and large trout definitely like huge, fat and juicy insects and I know a lot of people in the south use kind of similar looking catalpa worms for catfish with good success. I often wonder the same thing about silkworms when they grow real fat but I almost never see them for sale except online. [/QUOTE]
