Claude Wharton Weir

River
1.48 km²
Water area
A Sunwater weir on the Burnett River near Gayndah, Queensland, stocked with Australian bass, barramundi and golden perch.
Claude Wharton Weir is an impoundment on the Burnett River, and the fish to plan around are Australian bass, barramundi and golden perch: all three are stocked into it, and Australian bass and golden perch are recorded here too.
It is found at Monaghans Rocks Road, Gayndah. Sunwater owns the weir, so its site is the place to check current facilities, any fishing vessel requirements and weir alerts before a trip.
Check the current Queensland Department of Primary Industries (Fisheries Queensland) fishing rules before you fish.
