When it comes to coarse fishing, the right bait can mean the difference between a quiet session on the bank and your personal best.
Among anglers, Dendrobaena worms have earned a reputation as one of the most effective and versatile fishing baits available. At Bilsdale Worms, we specialise in supplying high-quality Dendrobaena worms weekly from Holland, and we’re here to tell you why they should be your go-to bait for coarse fishing!
What Are Dendrobaena Worms?
Dendrobaena (also known as Eisenia hortensis or European Nightcrawlers) are a tough species of earthworm known for their wriggly motions, resilience in water, and ability to thrive in a variety of conditions. They’re highly active, which makes them incredibly attractive to a wide range of freshwater species!
Why Coarse Anglers Love Dendrobaenas
Here’s why Dendrobaena worms from Holland are the top choice for coarse fishing in Britain:
- Highly Attractive to Fish
These worms are a magnet for fish. Their lively movement in water triggers feeding responses in species like:
- Perch
- Bream
- Roach
- Tench
- Carp
- Barbel
- Chub
Whether you’re float fishing, ledgering or using a feeder rig, Dendrobaenas bring action to your swim.
- Versatile and Easy to Use
These worms can be used whole, chopped or in combination with other baits like groundbait or pellets. Because they’re so durable, they stay on the hook longer than softer alternatives. Whether you’re hooking them singly for finesse or piling them on for big fish, you can adapt them to your technique.
They can also produce worm cast, which is excellent for plants and gardens.
- Resilient and Long-Lasting
Unlike some bait that goes off quickly or turns mushy, Dendrobaena worms stay lively for weeks providing they’re stored properly. That means less waste and better value!
The Bilsdale Worms Difference
Not all worms are created equal! At Bilsdale Worms, our worms are imported weekly from Holland, after which we grow them for a few weeks in our own trays. We then send them out by courier or local collection. They’re therefore guaranteed to be fresh.
The Netherlands has a long-standing, professional worm-farming sector dedicated to Dendrobaena veneta. We ensure you only receive the finest that are available.

How to Store Your Dendrobaena Worms
If you’re buying worms ahead of a fishing trip, proper storage is key. Keep them cool, moist, and in the dark, ideally in a garage or shed. Avoid direct sunlight or extreme heat. We supply our worms in breathable one kg bags with bedding that helps keep them healthy.
With the right care, Dendrobaenas from Bilsdale Worms can last several weeks, so you can keep fishing without restocking.

At Bilsdale Worms, we’ve built our reputation on quality and consistency. When you order from us, you’re getting worms from Holland that are bred to be highly attractive to fish and provide excellent results.
Composting and Beyond
While Dendrobaena worms are superb for fishing, they’re also excellent composting worms. If you’re into gardening or wish to reduce your food waste, these worms can turn scraps into rich organic compost.
This makes them a great investment, especially for anglers with allotments or gardens. As aforementioned, they can produce worm casts, which is healthy for outdoor spaces.
Dendrobaena worms (also called European nightcrawlers) are excellent for producing worm casts in gardens because of their natural feeding and burrowing habits. They eat organic matter such as leaves, compost, and soil particles, breaking them down into nutrient-rich casts.
Their casts contain higher concentrations of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and calcium than the surrounding soil.
Remember, Your Bait Matters
Fishing isn’t just about luck. It’s about preparation, gear and bait. With Dendrobaena worms from Bilsdale Worms, you’re giving yourself a serious edge. Our worms are strong, wriggly and proven to pull in fish in rivers, canals, and stillwaters. There’s a reason they’re so popular with fishermen.
Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just getting started, make Dendrobaena worms your bait of choice, and make sure they’re from a name you can trust.
