two thumpers are planted. the worm may not rise for the first he will rise for the second. but remember when the worm approaches, you must remain utterly still and plant the hook firmly under a ring segment. the worm will turn away from the abrasive sand and it will take you with it to the top. do not get too close, as he approaches the sand will engulf you. wait till the head of the worm passes then go, quickly.
