Hi mate,
camping wise things probably havrnt changed much since you were there.there is still the council park where you can camp right on the water and leave you boat in or the hillcrest park with tennis courts/pool etc. the water is starting to clear after the fresh with tailor grunter and whiting being caught. yes you can access the ocean with the 8 mile readily acessible.the winter whiting will also be on the move soon with a few snapper and mackeral.there will also be small queenfish and trevally making their way up the river.If you are planning a trip make sure you grab a great sandy straits marine park map as there is a couple green zones and go slow zones now being enforced.hope this helps.

Mate we just got back from a couple of days fishing the gregory river off Burrum.

Came back with a nice feed of bream and a few cod and grunter. Make sure you take your crab pots to. We came back with quite a few full muddies as well.

Hey mate!

There was a post last year that I contributed to on the same topic. Have a look at the thread as some of the guys gave sound info.
