Field notes
Murray River impoundment full of drowned redgum timber on the Victorian-NSW border. Australia's most reputable Murray cod fishery, with surface lures at dusk in summer producing trophies. Golden perch on lipless cranks year-round, plus redfin in winter.

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.
