Field notes

Long narrow Derwent-system impoundment near Derwent Bridge holding brown and rainbow trout. Trolling Tassie Devils along the timbered edges is the staple. Cold and windy — dress for the plateau. 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.
