Field notes
Broken River runs through Benalla and joins the Goulburn near Shepparton. Murray cod and golden perch hold around the snags in town and downstream; redfin are common in the slower water. Closed cod season applies.

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.
