Heres how i torture worms
I have been using worms more this year than ever. trout, steelhead, smallies, perch, largemouth, etc...they all love worms!
If I need a bunch of little worms I just cut em up into thirds a day or two before my trip, and throw em back in the container. Usually within 12 hours they have re-generated into little stubby worm pieces (all still alive and well). It makes them easier to hook, you dont have to chop em up on your boat, or any other place, and I imagine (I dont make worm baloons) the little piece of a fat worm will have no problem holding air.
It makes a world of difference when the bite is hot.
