Field notes

Cudgegong River impoundment south of Mudgee, one of the highest-yielding golden perch fisheries in NSW per DPI stocking returns. Public ramp at the dam wall; deep clear water favours soft plastics and blades over timber points.

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.
