Fishing
There are numerous things that one can do in Goondiwindi, including spectacular bush walks. The district
boasts some of the best inland fishing in Australia with catches of Golden Perch (Yellowbelly) and Murray Cod
firmly on the agenda. A free Camping and Fishing Guide is available at the Goondiwindi Visitor’s Information
Centre. Be aware that bag, size and seasonal restrictions on catches apply.

Having returned home after a few days of different lifestyle over the festive season, I was presented with your
mail, re “The Lodge Wyong Travelling Gavel Collection”. There by, I was enlightened as to the scope that your
venture embraces, undoubtedly leading in the direction of the universality of the Craft. I congratulate you on
your enterprise and in support and as requested, submit some brief notes relevant to the Balonne Lodge 294
U.G.L.Q. and the town of St. George, Q.4487.
Information about St. George:
St. George; situated in S.W. Queensland on the Balonne River (Pronounced BAL-on) approximately 600 klms
West of Brisbane. Population about 2300, and for several decades was the largest Town in the Eastern States
that was not served by the Railway. This distinction has in recent times been taken over by Lightning Ridge in
N.S.W. due to the boost that opals have generated with new discoveries.
