Finally nabbed it visually with my 10" Dob on the third attempt from reasonably light polluted Christchurch.
Was just about at Zenith, and managed to hop myself over from g and h Eridani. There was a comparatively bright galaxy there with 2 stars just visible near the core. I still wasn't really sure I was looking at N1365 so I jotted down the arrangement of the brighter stars on my notepad.
Thanks to Kevin's wide field shot I can confirm I was looking at the right thing, stoked to have bagged my first SN! Will try with more magnification if I get another shot at it to see if I can discern the SN itself a little better.
