I'm helping out as a volunteer at Norton Disney in April and as part of deal you can fish afterwards, have only ever fished for 24 hours max, and seemed to be a lot of stuff I took then, what would you guys advice me to take

A bit more bait and a bit more food and possibly more clothes unless you don't mind stinking

More bait, more clothes, more food and possible more terminal tackle, nothing different really from a 24hr to a 4 day session mate

4 times as much as youd need for a 24hr session (food, water, bait etc)

Take minimal kit if possible. Be mobile, You are move likely to move, if the fish do.

Same kit as a an 24hr overnighter, keep everything you don't need, like spare food, bait, fuel, etc, in the car.
Enjoy.

I am reading this as you are working during the day and can then fish overnight??

If so, that's 4 overnighters rather than 96hrs?

Will they be feeding you during the day and evening? i.e. Lunch and Dinner.
If so, you would just needs snacks and drinks/water etc.

I wouldn't be taking 4 days worth of kit/food when in reality you won't actually be fishing for 4 days.

3 essentials that I would take on any session longer than a day is:-

1. A bog roll as I doubt I could nip a dump for 96 hours.

2. A spare pair of "Kecks" in case I followed through when "squeaking" a fart out.

3. A spare pair of socks in case I stepped or slipped into the pond.

The most important thing I'd suggest to take is experience but being short of that just wing it after all what can go wrong lol, enjoy.

obviously you will need your fishing kit + enough Bait.

4 days worth of food + the means to cook it (GAS) - I suggest include at least some healthy food. 4 days of 'bank food' isn't really the one.

Plenty of water, at least 10L depending on what you like to drink, although you can probably re-fill it there

Couple of changes of clothes

Spare Batteries and/or/ charger for bivvy light/headtorch/bite alarms

Loo roll + plastic bags

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
