The bait I’m talking will be labeled as "Gigante Arco-Iris" (Rainbow Giant) and Brandling, both original of the southern hemisphere but in this case produced in Europe in a protected environment resembling their habitat. They look like the usual earth worms we're used to seeing in river competition fishing but they are not geophage as the previous. The R.G. worm can grow up to 25cm which is alot and is projected for sea fishing.

The Brandling is going to be marketed as a river bait used to catch bass, carp and others.
One of the good properties of this bait, come from its easy storage properties, not needing cold thus leaving us the option for almost every possible storage place. Also, they come in a nice package with the necessary food for surviving long time, the producer guarantees 20 days... but our tests showed time beyond that period.
I left a box on purpose in my car trunk (checking everyday) under very hot temperatures and after 7 days, the bait was still fine.

The bait resisted enough to the most powerful casts (used ground cast, not pendullum) and survival on cold water was averaging the 30min. time, which is more than enough for competition where any rig only averages 10min. on water. The worm was baited through the ring they have below the head (used for reproduction) and i didn’t need a needle for the baiting process, even though I think it's advisable. My personal sessions using the worm included catching sea bass, mullet and white sea bream, all using the surfcasting technique.

I hope that these worms can fill a gap in the market with its versatile use and durability. All in all, it can only increase the choices for the fisherman.
