was wondering if i could get some advice on how to locate leeches. particularly mud leeches, i live in western ohio. i have heard you will get some in almost any creek or river, but does anyone have any hints on finding them. or finding a honeyhole of them?

Why would you want leeches? Are you a plague doctor?

paylakeing. big catfish. ect
bait shops sell them for 1.00-.1.50 each and usually buy them from you for .25-.50 each. so its a win win.

Best bass bait I've ever used were live leeches similar to the ones in the OP. They tend to last through quite a few strikes too.

The best way to do this is to raise them yourself.

thanks, i will consider this however, i dont think i wanna go through all the hassle for so long since it takes them so long to get big.
for me it would be better to just get a couple dozen a month to keep me stocked for fishing.

use yourself as live bait, i remember as a kid i was in ohio camping and my brother and i were swimming and playing in this one stream and came out with a few leeches attached each.
