How much do you guys sleep at night. Iv found my self in a new sleep schedule actually more like nap schedule. For about a month now iv been averaging 3-4hrs a night. I wake up on my own wide awake no need for an alarm. I don't ever get tired either like I used to it kinda paid off these past few days working 18+ hour shifts for the mission we just had it was nice not having to adjust my sleep at all. Some of the guys here all they do is sleep like they seriously sleep 16+ hours a day they sleep all night and day even when on shift. I don't know how they do it I hate sleeping more then 7-8 hours I feel like I waste the day if I sleep to long at least that's how I felt at home here I almost wish I could sleep the deployment away like some of these guys lol.

How many hours of sleep do you guys get I'm sure there's gonna be some of the younger guys that probably sleep all day. I don't think Snook knows what sleep is I always see him on here when I'm on and i remember hes 7hours behind me and hes up at 2 or 3am in the states and then he goes fishing I don't think he knows what sleep is lol.

I average about 6-9 hours during the workweek, about 2-4 on my days off during the summer when I get up early to fish.
Is it spring yet??

About 5 hours per/night. I couldn't even tell you the last time I relied on an alarm clock to wake up.

I sleep on average about 4 hours, honestly it isn't enough, it was when I was younger. I don't go to bed, I fall asleep lol, my body clock wakes me at about 1:am. I leave to go fishing at various times that evolve around tide change and weather, mostly leave the house at 3:30 or 4:00 am., and almost always see other people fishing who got there before me.

I have a very inconsistent sleep schedule, at times I can sleep 23hours and sometimes it's less than two.

I average around 7 hours a night. I used to be able to go on 3-4 hours a night for weeks on end when I was younger but, these days, I need my sleep.

There are no magic lures and the fish don't care how much you paid for your gear.

between 5 and 6 hours a night. Less on weekends, I have been fishing "overnight" rather than getting up early and heading out. On Friday and Sat night I may leave for the lake at 9-10pm and fish all night....take a nap at 2-3 if needed, and head home by 9-10 am or so....take a nap for an hour or two and go again.

I shoot for 7 hrs +/- 30 minutes. Our bodies generally need 6-8 hours to "recover" with the majority of our healing/rebuilding occurring between 11 pm and 2 a.m. Clary... this means you need to quit doing late night internet research and go to bed by 11:00 or you're just cheating yourself out of some lacrosse potential. Same thing for weight lifters and athletes... regularly lose sleep and you lose performance.

Before kids? 8-12 depending on how hard i partied the night before lol. Now? 3-7 reguardless if its a weekday or the weekend. I cant sleep past 8 am if my life depended on it so it all depends on when i get to bed which depends on my work load for that day and how my kids are acting when i get home.. So 3-7 is about right.

What he said. In my younger days, about 5 hours was all I needed. These days at least 7. Trouble is, I don't always sleep that well...
