Will this kit be enough for three kids to use with their fishing rods? Also, will these colorful things replace worms as bait? Thanks!

It's more than enough, 3 or more of each lure of each color so yea. However, for kids, i wouldn't take worms out of the equation entirely. Worms can just sit there on a bobber, which is fun for kids and not tiring. Lures need constant movement, and an experienced hand to really get the fish going. Though, soaking the lures in a scent like garlic, blood, chicken bullion, etc might make it able to just sit and get strikes.

Yes three kids could share this. No... this is good but so are worms purple worms should go too various sizes mostly small for small bass to keep the action faster the other colors are fine but my favorate is purple. But a piece of worm or any insect and a perch hook will keep them kids busy and having fun. Just keep your bait small or they will just steal it.

I would recommend 2 kits for 3 kids as one kit is pretty slim pickings for 3 kids. THe rubber worms can work as bait but if you are wanting to catch fish then I would use actual bait.

Yes, enough for three kids. However, not as good as live bait for kids. Fishing with artificial lures requires some finese. My grandson does not have patience at nine years to properly jig. Additionally, kids will get bored more quickly if they are not catching fish . These colorful plastics with a worm, minnow, doughball or even a piece of hot dog fished with a bobber may be best bet for kids....hope this is helpful.

I think it depends on the size you order, but as I recall there are about 6. I do not have my tackle box here, otherwise I would go and look. They are great baits though.

This system works great with red wrigglers ( thats what I raise ). Be sure to use RAIN water to wet the bedding,DO NOT USE TAP WATER,as it will make the worms sick and will die .Hope this helps you out.

the rod is not a very thick rod but I have caught some over 10 but if you plan to catch a lot in that size range or bigger I would buy a king hawk glowstix since it is a much thicker rod and reasonably priced

No, it is not filled with bait. The bait is sold separately & is a liquid. You fill the unit on a as need basis so that it won't evaporate/loose bait.

Hi Joanne,I asked my husband about this, but he feels that a fly fishing rod would be too advanced for a 5-year-old. He thinks a spinning outfit would be better for a younger child. The fly fishing kit was good for our teenage grandson to learn on. Hope this helps.

We have 4 Ugly Sticks. My kids are 9 and 12 and they love them. Really easy to use and they catch fish. Have fun!

Hi John, I would recommend watching Larry Hall's video on easy cheap way to raise worms, with just a bucket. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VET7nzkuy8U

Bait is sold separately so shop it on your own. I had trouble with this seller as well so I would avoid ePestsolutions.

Hi. I would get one of these for his birthday. Okuma Avenger ABF Graphite Bait Feeder Reel I bought the 20 which I use when we go to the states and I can get fishing. However, maybe one of the bigger ones would be better for him, the 30 or 40. Apparently they are prone to corrosion, so make sure it is well washed after use, especially if he uses it in salt water. Good luck, Lindsay (from the UK)

I normally use 8's or 10's for "pan sized" trout or "stalkers". My favorite bait anymore for those types of trout are using 2 or 3 or the rainbow colored power eggs by Berkley Power Bait. You put on enough to float them off the bottom and set your depth 1 to 3 feet so the float above the weed line. I also like adding a Gold label Pautzke egg on the tip of the hook. The rubber eggs I slide up the shank otherwise they can be hard to set the hook through. I have had so much success with this setup that there are times I am the only one catching fish at local lakes. For larger trout I use 6's or 4's and do the same sort of setup but with marshmallows and night crawlers. Hope this answers your question and helps you catch more fish!! Good luck!!

I looked at the rods and I do think these would be a viable alternative. It appears the rods are already pre-sized and with these cubes you can make whatever sizes or combination of sizes you want.

Sort of. The worms are in a small tray - individually - but the tray is one package, so when you open it you have opened all. But the package also has a closure on it, like a ziplock baggie. It is my understanding that the bait will last at least 45 days in the closed bag. I did find these very effective. Just remember, other moles, voles, etc. will move into your area when a void is created (current occupants are dead) so you might find you will use more than one or two baits.

Michael: I really know my four year old friend I bought it for has had great success while making a few bucks selling to fishing guys as bait. At $10 I would drop the investment and see because there is no obvious reason why not get shrimp if something they like to eat is placed inside.

Since only one person even came close to answering your q....and they were just guessing....they are all wrong. you only need about 10% at most, of this in relation to all other soil components per square foot. it works wonders. you can consider buying and working your own worm farm later when you see the results, that way you dont ever need to buy this again with your own worms, anddddddddddd.....you get to go fishing with free bait, besides, which is cool....@ about $3 a dozen for fishing worms, these days! Good luck to ya, Jaz Mom edit = i take that back, i misread vintagepksweetie's post, my fault......she wasnt guessing, she is dead right, and what i said agrees with her, its about 10% of the volume = worm poopy.

The rods I purchased are fine, there is no question as to what the colors are. My 3 and 5 year old grandchildren love them!

Yes, ours came with a good starter set of tackle. It is very cheap tackle though, only for very lightweight fishing
