Remember

  • The completion of visits 1-12 should be the priority, with the interval between visits not less than six days.
  • A small number of additional visits are acceptable during the CES season, with visits after the end of the season being particularly valuable. The number of additional visits should not exceed the total number of standard visits though. Visits in early April should be avoided, as should visits up to three days before a main visit.
  • Extra nets are also permitted, though the total length of extra nets used should never exceed the total length of standard nets.
