To keep them sweet I don\u2019t fish during the day, but go out sight seeing, shopping, markets, swimming lakes etc. At first I thought this would be a disadvantage, but actually my results have improved. If the water is easy I just fish evening and mornings as I don\u2019t want to be awake all night. If the water is a little harder I tend to fish nights. I believe the advantages are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Resting the water during the day means the fish will not be disturbed.<\/li>\n<li>With no lines in the water fish will move in and feed confidently.<\/li>\n<li>I fish more efficiently as I am alert due to shorter sessions.<\/li>\n<li>I am fishing during optimum feeding periods.<\/li>\n<li>I get to see some of the beautiful French countryside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I believe that baiting of the swim is crucial. One can never put down hard and fast rules, but I have found the following to give very consistent results:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bait up just before dark, not when I start fishing in the evening as there could be feeding fish already in the swim. (this applies to night or evening\/ morning fishing)<\/li>\n<li>Bait up again just before going out with the family in the morning.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t bait up first thing in the morning or immediately after returning from a day out as the fish could have moved onto the bait and baiting up will spook them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My family and I enjoy this approach very much. I get to fish and a family holiday, what could be better?<\/p>\n<p><em>Jim Kelly<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I go to France with my family several times per year.
