Field notes
Vast impoundment connected to Lake Pedder via the McPartlan Canal. Brown trout dominate, with the occasional bigger fish from the deeper basins. Remote — fuel up at Maydena. TAS inland fishing licence required.

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.
