I would say my efforts were increased in frequency, but less in time. I fished 2-3 times a week for 4-5 hours, instead of 1-2 times per week for 7-8 hours. Seems to work for me, and the skunks don't feel as bad when its a short trip. Only did one all nighter and froze my pills off. Also, the shorter trips don't deprive you of as much sleep, thus I have the energy to go several times per week. I experienced about the same as canalman with a good spring, decent summer, slow early fall, and real good late sept/early oct. Quit in late october, lost interest. Any more than the 60 nights and I'm in divorce court.
