worm last about a month... their easy its the minnows that are hardest part. but the longest that we've had them stay alive in there was like 20 some days... weusually keep them in for about 2 weeks at the most though.

it was pretty slow at first becaue people didnt really want to trust it cause they wernt sure if it was gonna be alive or not. but its good now, we've built a pretty good rep. but since fishing is seasonal it really sucks right now cause noone wants to go fishing in the snow and we dont have good ice for ice fishing right now. But in the spring all we do is work our butts off tring to keep them full. right now we have 18 machines, but i think my dad is planning to double that in the next year or two.

is it at a gas station? its one we probably own and fill. We live like an hour and half west of philly, and have em down your way.

I can honestly say I've seen it all now .

That's something different , and I bet if you had some up here in my neck of the woods , you'd make a killing . Very interesting concept !!!!!

I have a bunch of those around me. I have a lake house on Grand Lake in NE Oklahoma and there are a few of those around the lake. It's a great idea! Too many times people get to the lake and it's late and all the bait shops are closed, always count on your machines to get me some night crawlers!!

ive never seen anything like that, "head west young man" those machines would be a big hit here in mi. lot of lakes and good fishin here. i like the wigglers for ice fishin, and the leaf or ""small" worms for bluegill. good idea on the machine, i like it.
