30th May 2014 Dunham Rest Area

Staying put today havinga rest day, spent a lot of the time yesterday talking to other people who come to the area, today will probably be the same.
Went back up the river one of the other guys came with us to find out how to get down into the river, we went up further to deeper holes snd had a wonderful swim.
Later we took some fishing gear down, Merv caught some live bait, we tried for barramundi,  I caught 1 but it was undersized,  so it went back.
We tried to go along the bridge after dark with the torch to check for crocodiles, when we were there 5 years ago we could see a lot at night, it wasn't safe to be on the bridge this time, as there is a new mine opened and there are 3 trailer semi's going past constantly and there is no walkway on the bridge.
There are cane toads up here everywhere and the worry is they are killing the little freshwater crocodiles off, we haven't seen any as yet
