Field notes

Iconic billabong below Nourlangie Rock in Kakadu - check current Parks Australia rules as recreational fishing is restricted in many zones here. Where permitted, saratoga and archerfish sit in the lily edges; barra push in after big wets. Massive crocodile presence.

Best windows combine civil twilight with the hour either side of sun transit — the universal low-light feeding window most species respond to. Moon phase influence is folkloric; full and new moons coincide with the strongest tide swings.
