Didn't you just tell me that it hasn't rained in a while? Well there ya go. Of course you're not going to find any worms.

Steve, my area is loaded with big night crawlers, even my own backyard lawn, but you don't find them that way unless it happens to be late winter/early spring, in the 50's at night, and pouring rain. For several days, until the ground is saturated, that is. And even then, the window for "night crawling" is only 2 or 3 weeks out of the year. At least that's how it is around here.

It's likely he's not finding anything because they are fairly deep underground and inactive at this time. Even with the recent rain we got the last couple of days, and as wet as my climate is, worms are disappearing. Getting very hard to find. Just a fact this time of year.
