I looked at your data and could immediately tell the moon was close to full. The general belief is that fish and game feed whenever the moon is directly overhead and then roughly 12 and half hours later when it's at its peak on the opposite side of the globe. And because a full moon always hits its peak (moon transit) around midnight, you can rest assured that will be the center of a major (roughly two-hour) feeding period. The second peak period comes around 12 and a half hours later.

While these apps work great, I've always used the US Naval Observatory website which provides a little more data, such as the beginning and end of civil twilight. It's also easy to find the information for anywhere on the globe on any given day.

IMO, it's the days when the peak periods fall on the early morning and late evening that are the best times to be in the deer woods, especially if weather conditions compliments it. No better time than a crisp, cold morning or evening when the moon is high in the sky.
