Dug a bunch of these out of my compost pile looking for worms. I imagine that if I just impale them through the middle then they will pop and all the good stuff will leak out. If I does nik the skin like I would a little maggot, it'll probably get ripped off the hook by smaller fish. Maybe through the head or through the back?
They're pretty big. Maybe 1/3 the size of my pinky.

I would try using a bait needle

Prevents the fish from stealing the bait too 🙂
Depends on the size of the hook.
What are you going for?
Likely straight through the back.
Edit’s Just saw the rough size, 1/3 of a pinky finger. So wasp grub size.
Through the back, or head.
