I\u2019ve been doing ‚quick‘ overnighters in between work for nearly 30-years now, on a variety of waters from rivers, canals and lakes to club waters, private waters and even syndicates. And, as a result, some of my best, biggest and most memorable fish have come during one of these many 10 to 12-hour sessions.<\/p>\n

So, to help you get more from your quickies, here’s my five point overnight guide.<\/p>\n

1) Preparation and planning<\/h1>\n

Being a project manager, the key for me is in the preparation and planning. I do love a plan!<\/p>\n

Tackle prep is kept simple by using the majority of the same tackle I use for longer sessions. Simple weight and space savers are food, water and bait. You could also cut out the unnecessary end tackle you would take for a weekend, carrying just a couple of spare leads, a few rigs, and any essential end tackle. This means no tackle boxes, no bivvy tables and so on.<\/p>\n

Also, if possible, I switch from using a full bivvy to a brolly or two-rib open-front shelter.<\/p>\n

Now, regards bait, I get the bait out of the freezer the morning before I head to work, so it has time to thaw out. If I\u2019m think of enhancing it, with liquids or powders then I would generally add them at the same time.<\/p>\n

Alternately, if I’m going for a ‚washed-out‘ bait approach then I will take the boilies out the night before and add some tap water. Personally, I\u2019ve never really noticed a difference between tap or lake water. It provides the same effect – the bait looks washed out, as if it\u2019s been in the lake for 24-hours or more.<\/p>\n

I then like to soak my baits in a tin of Dynamite Hemp and Snails. This gives a double-bubble effect if you like. As well as the baits looking ‚washed out‘, they also take on the oils from the hemp, giving the bait that extra punch! I will also add a little water to the small bucket of bait to make sure all the bait is covered.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
