On the loss of worms to crayfish...
A person could try to put their worms in a mesh bag too. Like roe bags used for salmon and trout on the coast. I used to put fish roe in thin pantyhose material and tie the "bag"/material closed with dental floss. Holds good on a hook and can even be tied onto large hooks with dental floss. Put up to six dew worms in a bag like this and crayfish would have a hard time taking them. Could snip a couple little slits in the bag to release the worm scent more. Or maybe a mesh onion bag type material but not really as enviro friendly if you break off.
