Storm King Dam

Field notes
Granite Belt impoundment near Stanthorpe, town water for the area. Cold-climate water that fishes very differently to other QLD impoundments — yellowbelly slow but reliable on bait, the occasional silver perch.

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.
