welder Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 At night I would move the rod further away from the snags TBH, the fish are more likely to venture further out of the snag under the cover of darkeness, I dont really think there is a safe way of fishing sideways onto snags when your fast asleep, you need your whits about you, the 5 secs it take for you to wake up and hit the rod the fish could easily of buried its self deep in them I agree. I also think it takes more then 5 seconds for most of us. Do we really wake on that first beep of the alarm, or just think we do? How can we really be sure? Agree. I guess it depends on how deeply asleep you are, and how quickly the brain signals reach arms and legs. I doubt if I could claim 5 seconds, rather more I guess. Another factor is the bivvy door. Zipped? Just dropped? Fully open and rolled up? Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A windy night will have it off One of the advantages of using a twinskin bivvy with extended overwrap is that I never have to close either of the doors. I'm always a long way from the weather, whatever it's doing Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
