This is a 'blood worm', perhaps more than one as they tend to tangle together. Blood worms are in the same group as earthworms, as they are segmented. They are a very favored form of live fish food.
I remember finding horsehair worms in a lake while camping. Very, very strange creatures.
Thank you.
That is one worm. It is 5 or 6 inches long. I have a Blue Spotted Sunfish about 2.5 inches, it loved the worm.
