It is fairly easy to buy some fishing worms and put them in a garden
plot. If the soil is good, they will multiply quickly.
You can get nightcrawlers at a lot of convenience stores. There is
also an elderly resident on Tryon Road just West of Lake Wheeler that
sells fishing worms. He usually has a 'fishing worms' sign in his
front yard. It doesn't take a lot.
Then you just go out with a spade and dig them up. Works for me.
Never have a problem finding plenty of fishing worms.

I would like to have worms around here so when I go fishing, I don't have to

Or is it better to have a fridge thing and have a good habitat for them?
Just how hard are they to get going and keep going?

I have several areas with rotting leaves directly on the ground that
have nightcrawlers, perfect for fishing. * Also, compost is loaded
with large worms, big and fat. *Make a pile (at least a cubic yard) of
organic material (50/50 green/brown) directly on the ground, introduce
a few nightcrawlers and in a month or so you will have enough worms
for fishing and more. * Taking care of worms indoors is also possible,
though more bother than it's worth.
