I got my mealy worms at pet smart (apparently lizards and snakes love 'em too)

I've caught loads of Aussie Bass with them before and Yellow Belly (usually with the worm suspended under a float OR tossed out with a light trace & sinker).

I've also caught Carp on them and Bream and Flathead and Catfish (eel & fork tail) and Eels and tortoises; accidental or course.

And a mate of mine loves using them on Trout in the streams near Ebor.

So they do work. But I haven't really tried them on whiting yet. When using earthworms I tend to prefer the chunky ones that you dig out of the garden as opposed to the compost variety.
