Any one know of any worth while spots to pitch a tent around Townsville at all? I'll be heading back to Townsville early next year, and interested in any place near by that i can escape the hassles of Uni.
Cheers

Not really unless your keen to go to hinchinbrook or maybe near ayr. i sometimes spend the weekend at the barrata creek hut my misses parents own. Nice place and some good fishing there but mossies will skin you alive. Welcome to tag along for some fishing

Balgal Bch Doc,via Rollingstone,near Big Crystal Creek great kneck of the woods. 50k north of Townsville.
Cheers Craig.
Nice place but a little restricted with boat ramp, can only acces it at tides above 1.6 meters. You can always head over to maggie with the boat and camp somewhere on the island. So close yet so far away.

If you have a 4WD Cungulla is the shot.
Thanx for the replies guys. Robbo, unfortunately had to get rid of the cruiser. Bit much to run on my limited student budget!!! Only got a little Pulsar now, so that's gunna limit where i can go a fair bit.
Keep the suggestions coming.

Another suggestion. Do you like fresh water light line fishing? if you do then macrossins is about an hour drive towards charters towers and you can camp on the river and catch yellow belly, sooty, perch, barra and heaps of other stuff.

I did not know that the Burdekin had yellowbelly. Are they native or have they been introduced into the dam?
Kind regards... David
yea i think they stock them in the burdekin falls dam.
Burdekin Falls Dam is great place to camp and also to wet a line. Sunwater operate a shady camping ground with clean toilets and showers. Have to be self sufficient though.
Try throwing gold bomber lures from the shore anywhere near the boat ramp to the dam wall.
