Hi. I have just come back from great, virtually free, camping on the mouth of the Elliot R nth of Bowen ,QLD. You turn off just sth of Guthalungra road house, which , by the way has cheap fuel . Great fishing , got some great whiting and flathead. vast yabby banks! The land is privatly owned, but the ****ey charges $50 a year! which is less than $5 a month!its a good dirt road . the only drawback are a few midges. A lovely spot.

Sorry, but its not hard to find. Just go across the bridge to the sth of Guthalungra, and down the dirt road . Its about 4klm to the settlement at the mouth of the river. I hope this helps you. I will be going back, for sure.
