If you are planning to visit another state over christmas and thinking of doing a spot of fishing it would pay you to check out the local rules and regulations.
Each state has their own set of rules when it comes to bag limits, minimum sizes, licence requirements, etc.
Here is a list of some website that should help you out.
NSW - http://www.fisheries.nsw.gov.au/licence/index.htm
Anglers fishing in freshwater and saltwater in NSW are required to carry a licence unless they are covered by an exemption.
QLD - http://www.dpi.qld.gov.au/fishweb/
As of 1 July, 2000 a stocked impoundment permit (SIP) is required to fish in specific stocked impoundments in Queensland. This does not apply to all non tidal waters.
VIC - http://www.nre.vic.gov.au/web/root/domino/cm_da/nrenfaq.nsf/frameset/NRE+Fishing+and+Aquaculture?OpenDocument
