Your catch
starts with the
right bait.
For generations, anglers have trusted Wolfe's Worm Shack for fresh, reliable live bait and everything you need to make the day count on the water.
Everything you need
to fill the boat.
From live bait that stays lively to tackle that performs when it matters — we stock the gear serious anglers rely on.
Live Bait
Fresh earthworms, nightcrawlers, and minnows — raised and kept in peak condition so every cast has a fighting chance.
Tackle & Lures
Hooks, sinkers, swivels, jigs, and hard-bodied lures from trusted brands. If it belongs in your tackle box, we probably carry it.
Rods & Reels
Entry-level to advanced spinning, casting, and fly gear. Get matched with the right setup for the species you're after.
Supplies & Accessories
Buckets, coolers, line spools, pliers, and the small things you always forget until you're already at the boat ramp.
Licenses & Permits
Indiana fishing licenses available at the counter. Start your day legal — grab your license before you cast your line.

Born from a love
of the water.
Wolfe's Worm Shack wasn't built in a boardroom. It grew from years of early mornings, cold water, and the kind of patience that only comes from standing at a dock with a rod in hand.
We know what it means to show up at the ramp and realize you're out of worms — or that your hook size is wrong for the species you're targeting. That's why we make sure we have what you need before you do.
Every worm is hand-raised, every piece of tackle is selected with the angler in mind, and every person who walks through our door is treated like a neighbor — because that's exactly who you are.
"The bait's always fresh, the prices are fair, and the guys behind the counter actually know what they're talking about."
Come say
hello.
