Polish term

rosówka

Polish to English Other Fisheries fishing bait
On a website about fishing and what bait attracts various types of fish
There is dżdżownice which I translated as earthworms, but also rosówki which I think is also an earthworm. I need to make a distinction as some fish prefer dżdżownice and others rosówki.

Is anyone here a fishing expert?

Reference:

Lumbricus terrestris

Because it is widely known, Lumbricus goes under a variety of common names. In Britain, it is primarily called the common earthworm or lob worm (though that name is also applied to a marine polychaete). In North America, the term nightcrawler (or vitalis) is also used. In Canada, it is also called the dew worm, or "Grandaddy Earthworm". In the rest of the world, most references are just to the scientific name, though with occasional reference to the above names.
