As long as you can access this creek without trespasing you should be right,the person has no legal claim to the riparian zone(normaly 1 chain/22 yards from high water mark).
I believe Banshee is right .I had a simmilar problem with camping on the bank of a local creek when i lived at Bushland Beach(Townsville).Fisheries Patrol told me they can't do a thing if i am within 1 chain from the high water mark

G'day,
It's not my land, but living nearby i know that it is a drainage creek from the lake that the fella allowed (for money?) to run through his land. unfortunately it is private property. He has had a lot of idiots leaving rubbish or being peanuts so he has now fenced off access and put up signs. Once again a few idiots have ruined it for all.
