as far as i know theres nothing you can do to make him change his nocturnal habits, best advice i could give you is to hunt hard and hope to be in the right place at the right time. he will becomea little more careless in the rut but keep in mind bucks will travel miles chasing a doe so during the rut he may not be anywhere near that spot anymore, he could be fifteen miles away chasing a hot doe. just my opinion
