Nightcrawler storage box

[PACMEN]

After making my electric nightcrawler getter [My electric nightcrawler getter (bigfishtackle.com)] I created a new problem, how to keep a bunch of nightcrawlers alive.  I thought back when I was a youngster and my dad made a nightcrawler storage box that worked well.  I improved some on his model and made one of my own.  I already had everything that I needed with the exception of some door screen wire.  I think it turned out well, and I will likely make another one, so that I can catch a bunch in the late fall, and not have to buy any nightcrawlers over the winter.

where ya gonna keep it in the winter to protect from freezing?

I had an old cooler buried in the ground to keep my stash in. Worked great. I could dig a few out of it in a hurry and be headed out. Kept them in great shape

I buried an old cooler also a few years ago but my problem was feeding them I think.  Couldn't keep em alive.
