Unfortunately there does not seem to be any evidence that indicates that steps have been taken to resolve the issue/s associated with this placement. It would appear the owner of this cache listing is no longer interested in the cache and the cache has been abandoned.

As such the cache is being de-listed (Archived). If there are components or remnants of the cache, please recover them as we don't want to litter our environment with Georubbish.

If you wish to contact me regarding this cache, please send an email via my profile - [**Bunjil**,](https://coord.info/PR9GZ0K) and quote the cache name and GC number.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED PLEASE** ###

Hi there tigersden,

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as a cache that **MAY** need some attention.

You may recall having received an automated email from Geocaching HQ which explained what you needed to do.

Unfortunately, nothing seems to have happened, so I am having to take the next step and temporarily disable the cache - see here: [**Geocache Health Score.**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=713)

**Can you please respond to this situation (or indicated your intention) within 14 days,** so others know exactly what is happening with this cache?

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Check on the cache, repair and/or replace the cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) indicating the cache has been checked and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

- If you don't plan on fixing it then you could consider passing it on to another geocacher by asking them to [**Adopt it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=54) or alternatively, you need to [**Archive it,**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Could not find

No luck

No luck for me here today

Third strike in Axedale. Is it us???
oh well we live to cache another day

lochb and I spent some time searching for this one but alas in vain. All we found were ants and some nesting corellas and a cockatoo...

Beautiful spot, TFTC!

Out with Mazza-g for our birthday weekend riding the trail

Today we teamed up with the twins from team OGomells and rode the rail trail from Bendigo to Axedale. It was an awesome ride. This cache was our last find for the day. Very picturesque. And really pretty. Thank you for bringing us here and TFTC.

Found it

Plenty of good hiding spots here but found it eventually!

Hi there tigersden.

We found your cache **"Fishing in Axedale"** today. (This makes our find count 19120).

We are house sitting in Junortoun for a few weeks, and Ian's son James called in for an afternoon of Geocaching. We found 9 caches today & DNF'd 0.

We thoroughly enjoyed our strolls along the rail trail from the various access points. Thanks for placing the cache here, without geocaching as our guide we would never have found so many interesting places on our travels.

We definitely didn't find a micro here, so we guess we didn't find the same container that Muzza did.

**Coordinate Accuracy:** We found most caches within a few metres of where our GPS said we should be looking. [:(!] This one was found Exactly where the GPS said we should be looking.
**Cache Condition:** The containers and log books were all in good shape.
**Took:** Nothing.
**Left:** Smiley Badge.

Thanks for the hunt today,

Regards

Ian & Penny

Day two away with my kayak, and heading back to Lake Eppalock to attempt the other four caches, plus a few random caches on the way there and back. Found on my way back to the motel. There were a lot of places it could have been hidden, but I found it after a few minutes. It's listed as a small, but what I found was a micro, so I suspect that the container has been replaced. Either that, or this is a throw-down cache someone else has left.



My thanks to tigersden for the cache.

Big houses here. Great spot. Quiet today. TFTC ‍‍‍

Found it

Perfect weather for strolling along the river. Plenty of water in the river and green grass not too long for finding a cache. Thanks tigersden for a pleasant spot to find.

We had tried this one a few years ago but hot weather, long grass and snakephobia put us off. Today it was a little bit of scratching around until the Moose put his hands on it. What massive river gums these are... they are beautiful, thanks for bringing us here and for the hide.

Pretty cool well hidden lots of long wet grass TFTC

A another sun for caching in the bush and great walk
TFTC

Detoured off the rail trail to log this find. Huge log here....climbed up and over while searching. Thanks for the cache.

Headed for Bendigo this morning in the company of the McLookers to tackle The PPPT trail with our bikes on board and a picnic lunch packed. The weather conditions were ideal today with the sun out, but not to hot and no wind to speak of.
A slight detour after enjoying a picnic lunch nearby . Today our GPS had the hide 18 metres from GZ.
Thanks tigersden for the placement.

We were not having much luck until we widened our search and then The Tritonz made the find. Thanks tigersden, pretty spot. No TB here today.

In the Bendigo area visiting family and friends
After a morning out birdwatching i headed here with a friend who lives nearby. After a thorough search all we found was a pen. Left disappointed

Lovely trees. When the water clears
Up I'm going
To give this spot a fish.

Find # 2606

Having a long weekend I decided to head off on another of my solo caching hunt trips. My main aim was to go and have a look at some of the caches in and around the Lake Eppalock area .

The day turned out to be a typical Melbourne day, all four seasons. From high humidity, to chilly winds and even a torrential down pour with a few cracks of thunder and a little lightening too boot.

From walking across lake beds to driving down rutted and dusty roads, it was one interesting day.

Long dry Grass, waters edge and a hot day. and armed with my hiking stick I made a quick find (of the cache that is) and thankfully there were no scales to be around.

Found this one back on the 13 September 2015 while enjoying a family picnic by the creek. TFTC

We're off on another family geocaching holiday! The geofamily: Geoparents = moneydork and tounga, geosis = locus cache and myself. Another raid into Mexico and that other state to the north of Mexico.

I left geodad and geosis to do this cache while I drove back to Bendigo and cycled out to meet then - team work.

Thanks for the cache tigersden.

I found this cache on a caching trip to Bendigo, Victoria, with Locus Cache and Sushilord.
We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed all of the caches that we found.
We did the cycle trail from here to Bendigo. TFTC

Day 2 of the Bendigo trip with sushilord, Moneydork and Tounga.
We started the day with a very enjoyable bike ride along the O'Keefe rail trail and ended it driving in a forest
64 finds (2 will be logged once I have reached the required milestone challenge) and only 3 DNFs , one of which (Sogno Impossibile) was more of a could not search rather than a DNF.

Sushilord dropped us off and then took the car back to Moneydork's last unfound cache, leaving Moneydork and I to ride from this end back to the car.
This was our first cache and it was a pretty spot.
Sadly, we had no fishing gear with us as this is only a caching trip.

Yes, we agreed that this was a great picnic spot. Glad we could drive right to it as well Thankfully, cache was easy to find. Kids love that!

stopped at axdale on the way to an event in bendigo, and decided to find some caches.
met up with aussie fun seaker and found this one.
easy find tftc.

A lovely spot for a cache, easy find. Found with little blue wren while on our
way to the Event in Bendigo. TFTC.

Found today whilst cacheing with Cybergran V the wind was a bit to cold to enjoy fishing. TFTC. LS

I was delighted when I opened this cache, all the way here I had been plagued by a broken fingernail which was giving me grief, and I could not believe my eyes when there was a pair of nail clippers inside. Nail clipped, clippers returned to help next traveller in distress.
I was also pleased that the advertised travel bug was actually there. I picked it up to move it along and left a beautiful Scout Geocoin trackable to continue its journey.
Thanks for bringing us here to this very picturesque spot.

A lovely place to stop, very relaxing spot. TFTC

Found it. What a wonderful walk and great spot.

Took a minute but the kiddies loved scrambling for it

First for the Day with cousins.

Found it! With geoson Cooper on a lovely afternoon in Axedale. TFTC

Found after a short search - TFTC!

Found this one today making # 160 on my birthday. signed log and left a fish nail clippers I'd saved for this cache and also dropped off a new water related TB of mine.

Tftc. Sneaky

Thank u

It was a ripper spot

found it.
TFTC

Assumed it would be under log, nothing there or in surrounding area?

We are beginners and could not find this will try again another day

This is a great spot and the cache took a few minutes to find, but eventually it was done, thanks tigersden.

Didn't catch any fish might help if I put a line in but did manage to catch a cache. Thanks tigersden FTC.

Nice place for fishing
Found with Megs_q
Cache in good condition
Thanks tigersden

Had a look and did not find it, had a look at previous logs, thought we may not find it when SQAU found it.
It's still there and in good condition
TFTC

We DNF'd 1 caches today. [:(!]
[red]We spent quite some time here at around 12:47:00 PM, but we couldn't locate your cache, so a DNF from us - - - not stating it's not there... just that we couldn't spot it.
[/red]Ian and Penny

Couldn't find it!

Have never been here before! Be great to sit and relax. Easy find with Leave No Traces.
Can see it being snake area in summer!
TFTC

Lovely little spot. Muggles on bikes chasing about but snaffled quickly and left. Water slightly flowing. Cache is good condition. TFTC

[:(!] Went to Bendigo for the weekend to do a bit of caching in the area, left Wagga at about 1500 and arrived in Bendigo at 1730 on the Friday night, was back in Albury at 1630 on the Sunday to spend the night with my son and his family, after doing a few caches in the morning I went and picked up my bike so I could do the O"Keefe Rail Trail, this cache was one of them, peddled as close as possible to GZ and walked in from there, on arrival at GZ the cache was in hand in a matter of minutes.

"I like it"

Suscoe's 17th find of 58 for today as we left St Arnaud and headed to Bendigo for a bit of rail trailing.
This was a delightful day with perfect weather which hit around 22 degrees and at times some very light rain in the morning.
The trip was great and we enjoyed seeing the green tinge to the surrounding paddocks.
Thanks to tigersden for bringing us here. All good today but no one fishing.

This caching trip started when my daugther asked to go to 'Groovin the Moo'music festival in Bendigo and needed someone to take her and her cousin.
Finding what to do for several hours in Bendigo I found the O’Keefe Rail Trail with lots of caches along it "Perfect"
Dropped the Girls off at the Festival with a bunch of warnings and to give me a couple of texts thru the day then parked at the start of the Trail.
After finding the first cache to zero out a TB I did the Trail as a Cyclist and rode to Axedale then grabbed a couple caches near the River before lunching at the Axedale Tavern. Lunch was great and well priced but the Tavern needs some bike racks.
The return leg was a Caching ride starting ok then looking at my watch I better get a move on. The ride was a blur of finds, on the bike to the next one with dark clouds and the light against me. Most of the hides were easy with a couple of time consuming harder ones. I made it back to the car well after dark to a couple hours wait before returning to Melbourne.
Thanks to tigersden for the cache

#2155 Spending the Anzac weekend in Heathcote and out exploring the surrounds on this sunny autumn afternoon. Not quite enough water to make a successful fishing spot today, but we did find a cache eventually!! We wandered past some happy picnickers and made our way to the water. There are quite of lot of new houses being built on the rise overlooking this cache site, so hope it stays safe from muggles. SL at 2.22pm TN Left: toy. TFTC Tigersden

Great spot
Thanks for bring me here and cache

Beaut spot. TNLN TFTC

The river was running nicely and a great spot to visit on a warm afternoon.
Of course no one likes looking about logs near water in the middle of summer but hey if you want the cache, you must run the gauntlet.
Thanks tigersden.

We had this lovely spot to ourselves and owing to the longish grass I let feathertop do the poking about.
Relieved the cache was soon found.
TFTC

After completing the rail trail series yesterday we wanted to return today to find this cache also. We weren't real keen on the long grass in the heat, but we were able to locate the cache quickly. Thanks for the cache tigersden

Was a bit braver today as the grass had been cut and was hoping that the rain would scare away the snakes! Had a little search around until finally came up with the goods, quickly signed the log and ran back to the car to get out of the rain TFTC

Searched for a short while in the cold rain before Tamzy had cache in hand and we ran back to the car. TFTC

Grass was very long on today's visit and was a bit weary of snakes, had a quick look around but didn't find, will come back when the snakes are asleep!

My first find for the day. Lovely spot, took a photo of the newly finished bicycle bridge. TFTC

A lovely peaceful spot and a quick find in the company of the 2 Robyns. TFTC tigersden

Fortunately Tag-along found this one. There was a fisherman muggle across the river so we didn't linger too long.

Nice spot. Found the cache at 5:15pm after adjusting the search area by a few metres.

thanks tigersden

13:58
The one that nearly got away! Not wanting to leave empty handed we cast our net wider and wider. We tagged and released the elusive little guy. Satellites for this fella had the GZ 12m south of where we found it.

I was here yesterday fishing for caches.
Alas on a Sunday the local reserve down by the river was a bit too popular with the local muggles [:o]
Today I arrived on the pushbike mid-morning and not a muggle in sight
A short search ensued and my good geocaching eye spotted the merest hint of camo covering the cache
'Tis a nice spot down by the Campaspe, and there is a good flow of water at the moment

Found on our way out to Heathcote for some old school caching. The dog loved it here and the cache took some finding. TFTC

22- and again... almost couldn't find this one.
