    Truth be known...Ive been giving him some of my weight training diet every night over the past month. Dont know what the hell i am to do with him now...last thing you want is that in the sewer coming back up a toilet & i expect i will have trouble finding an opponent for him if i take him on the road.

    Thank you Gus for that visual of him coming up in the toilet. I will be peaking every time now before I sit! Everyone knows that anything in the world is possible in another part of the world, when oceans connect, and in this case, including septic.

    Are you sure it's your weight training diet? It could be mutation caused by nuclear or cosmic radiation.

    The fisherman here take hypodermic syringes and pump the night crawlers up with air before launching them...Not only are they huge after the dermic injection, but they also float...I wish I had a photo.

    All i can assure you of is its natural. I cant bring myself to put one on a hook let alone anything else. My fishing gear will be on ebay shortly for a nice set of filters.

    That has to be the biggest earthworm I've seen eek7.gif

    Must be due to the drought - how's the water situation at the mo? From the telly, it looks as though you've had some rain. We've had our whole year's worth in the last week.
