Field notes
Vast impoundment in the southwest wilderness with a strong brown and rainbow trout population. Trolling the drowned drainages and casting the shorelines on calm evenings both produce, with bigger fish through autumn. Inland licence required; remote, very limited facilities at Strathgordon.

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.
