Bedford Weir - North of Blackwater on Capricorn Highway


I can't stop raving about this place. 7 day stay, hot showers, toilets, tonnes of room, great caretaker (Rick), Sunday afternoon concert/sing along/ jam session with a sausage sizzle.  All of this for a donation that you decide. There's a lake/river that has been seeded with Barra fingerlings but the wasn't a great deal of fishing success while we were here. There's heaps of wildlife including a flock of pea****/peahens, friendly (mercenary) lorikeets, some roos and some Wallaby rats. Give it a go!!!

Is indeed a great spot - spent time there earlier this year - and will be back again at some stage - not too far out of Blackwater for shopping, if you can find the Woolies!!! Down the street before Red Rooster I think it is!

We stayed there last week - second visit, last time back in August 2011.  Toilets were a bit "woofy" then, still are.  No sign of dump point, but there is one in Blackwater.
