A man spends the entire day fishing by an icy lake but doesn’t catch a single fish. Frustrated, he decides to pack up and leave. As he’s heading back, he notices a young boy just a few feet away reeling in fish after fish, his buckets overflowing.

Intrigued, the man approaches the boy and asks, “Excuse me, but I’ve never had any luck around here. What’s your secret?”

The boy mumbles something incoherent: “Yer grutto keez ur ems orm.”

Confused, the man asks him to repeat. “Yer grutto keez ur ems orm!” the boy says again, a bit louder but still unclear.

Still puzzled, the man apologizes, “I’m sorry, I just don’t understand.”

With a sigh, the boy spits something into his hand and yells, “You gotta keep your worms warm!”
