Field notes
High-country storage in the Grampians holding brown and rainbow trout plus a strong redfin population. Shore access along the western edge produces fish on bait at dawn; small lures work on the points. Cold mornings, often windy by midday.

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.
