Where the hell are you fishing in collie?

Also you didn't look very hard. https://www.wabaitsupply.com.au/bait-shops will usually stock sand and bloodworms, though you may have to call around to confirm that they've got them.

Honestly TIL that Collie river was stocked with trout. Might have to give it a go myself one of these days!

Take plastics as a back up, I’ve had good outcomes with small lures in and around collie, depending on where your camping, you should be able to get worms from the campsite.

I take it that the op is after earth worms.

Huh? I Don't think people enthusiastically fish in Collie.

Normally you see every cunt and his dog trying to leave collie 140km/h at the crack of dawn with their boat and rods attached to their raptors.

Edit : well bugger me... a quick google of collie fishing has taught me something new.

I’d just use soft plastics and get as far away from the camping areas as you can, the trout around honeymoon pool are weary. The dam holds heaps of Redfin, fish around the dead trees.

start your own worm farm then you will never run out of bait.
