Sudden death?

Luckily the bait shops near me sell worms still for ice fishing... Surprised yours dont.

The ones where I used to live did; here we don't have any nice lakes or ponds for ice fishing. Most of the fishing here is on the coast and I guess salt water being constantly moved by tides doesn't freeze very well.

Blue, you may very well be correct in that Dekay's cannot digest chitin. With the linear gastrointestinal tract I still don't see a healthy snake getting obstructed or injured from it. Nonetheless, I could expect diarrhea or other disruptions that could certainly cause illness, such that if clinical signs not being observed, "sudden death" would be the result.
