At this point in time I haven't got enough time to check on this one.

### **OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUIRED?** ###
This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as one that may need attention. Perhaps it is time for the CO to check on this one please.

I am temporarily disabling it so as to stop it showing up on search lists and to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary.

Your prompt attention to logs that indicates things could be amiss will be greatly appreciated by all geocachers. It is generally accepted that 3 consecutive DNF's is reason enough to check, see here: [Owner is responsible for visits to the physical location,](http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx#cachemaintenance )

Please respond to this situation by **28th October** to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness. If you require more time, please be sure to post a "Write Note" log (not an email) explaining the situation and indicating a date when you believe the situation will be resolved.

**And don't forget,** once you have addressed the issue, post both an "Owner Maintenance" log, see here; [Removing the Needs Maintenance Icon](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and an "Enable Listing" log, see here; [Temporarily Disable and Enable](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) to get your cache up and running again.

Fence has collapsed. Don't get rangled in it. Appears to be private property. No rock found. DNF

Couldn't find a fence or a rock. We sadly had to give up on this one.

Second DNF for the day. Not going so well . As others have said, fence has gone and couldn't find any rock. I poked around in likely places, but no find, unfortunately.

Good spot. No cache, fence fallen, no rocks, no luck.

Tftc,awesome spot

Beautiful Inlet, we've been coming here our whole lives. Great to find a cache here. TFTC

We've often taken the dogs for walks down here, it's especially nice at sunset.
We didn't find a rock but still found the cache. Thanks for hiding it!

An early start this morning, as we hoped to put a few smiley tokens on the page 38 map in an effort to complete the Victorian Country Road Atlas Challenge before it celebrates its 10th anniversary of placement later this year. The inlet looked very peaceful, we could imagine kayaking on this water.

Our thanks to Gonefishen07 for placing this cache.

Could not find any rocks ?

Found

We were unable to find this one today

Found on a beautiful day of caching! Once we arrived at the end of the road, it took us a very long time to find this cache. We looked over a large radius before we finally spotted the cache in a spot close to the coordinates - should have looked a bit harder in the first place! A very quiet location today and very lovely views! TNLNSL. TFTC Gonefishen07!

[:(!] Thanks for an awesome effort.

I like it

Another one off the list

Disabled on behalf of CO to allow checking.

Found by The mighty Weasel! Team Grouchy is back!

No rock but found it

It's there for sure, log a little wet, TFTC

Log wet

Is it possible that is was washed away? Fairly high tide!!

Down at the beach house for a holiday and adding to our finds in the area. We came here a few years ago to watch the tide coming in and loved watching the soldier crabs digging into the holes before the water washed over them. This time we came during low tide and the geotoddler and geoteen were getting VERY muddy feet, much to their absolute delight. There were a few dog walking muggles and fishermen muggles. It took a tiny bit of searching to find the cache, and it was in good condition, we added some swag, but took nothing. SL, thanks for placing this here. It is an interesting place to visit.

This one was fun

Thanks for the swap

Great spot. Easy find. Thanks

Easy find

Quickly found, by there were two containers? One didn't seem used, so logged the other one. Found with somonew1972. Tftc.

Lovely spot

Tftc

In venus bay for easter with ned and mrs kelly, geoquinnies and muggle relative. a quick find by the relative! gracias gonefishen07

Found at 12:36
It took a while to find this one given that I had to pause the search a few times when muggle dog walkers arrived. Happily I got there in the end.
Thanks Gonefishen07 for another weekend away cache.

Took a while to find, is covered well

Found it kids liked the swap boxes they swapped a monkey stamp for a owl stamp

Found it!! Great hiding spot but had to be very sneaky there were so many muggles!!
Found this one with Glishes and Miss Glish

Great cache! Caching with our friend S_T_E_L_L_Z. Miss Glish found this one. TFTC!

PS: The container needs maintenance because it has holes in the lid and it was quite damp.

dnf .... 2nd we've struggled with here. Maybe my looking, just concerned re: wildlife under shrubs etc and how far too look. Here another day so maybe try again....

Left our hair tie fun find while getting attacked by flies!

Great hide! Took the kids ages to find it.

Found but can't see the rock. Took a while to find because of that hint.

Nice cache. Good camouflage. TFTC

Tftc. Logged and replaced. Placed trackable PC9B09 found in West Gippsland, keep it hoping all over. Just remember to log it as grabbed on website. Lovely spot

Found it. Moving trek tag gx335b along

Our last find for this trip to Venus Bay and another one found by the geokids, I think we might leave them at home next time to give us grown ups a chance A great spot, a few people fishing but too busy to worry about what we were doing. Nice to find a big container in such a pretty spot so we dropped of a trackable and made a swap for our muggle local kid friend who can't wait to go geocaching again.

Thanks for another great experience and we're looking forward to finding more Gonefishen07 caches in the future

Beautiful view after finding this one

Another great spot! Knot where we thought!

Mmm haven't found it yet have 2 come back

Found today with geo daughter who says "Just putting it out there, that is not a rock." TFTCGF07

Nothing..... DNF

Another great hiding spot. TFTC. Not sure about the rock hint...

TFTC. Thanks for replacing this one GF07. We are coming to the end of our stay in Inverloch so it was now or never to clear up those caches we missed in May.

[red]Find #2532 Traditional #2033 [/red]

We were on a trip down to Inverloch for a weekend away and to complete the D/T Matrix which we did yesterday with some great company. Today was a different story with some easier finds. This one was of the many amazing spots along this coast. We are loving the beach down here. The inlet's tide was well out, but this wasn't going to bother us anyway. This took me a lot longer than I thought. A few spots to look and a little rubbish around before the right angle and I spotted this one. Stamped and replaced as found.

[blue]Thanks for this traditional cache hide, Gonefishen07 [^]
Log and container in good condition.
Took Nothing, Left Nothing [/blue]

Our second DNF for the day. We poked around, but could not find it. Will try again another day

Looked everywhere. Seems to have been a clean up in the area. No luck today, will come back.

What a great view. With a few fishermen nearby we tried to search for the cache, and I'm sure it was there, but no luck for us today.

Just about to give up when a couple of young boys came along boasting they knew where it was. We were happy for them to show us and take the credit for the find.

This one had us beat. There was a lot of vegetation around and we couldn't find the rock. We sat down to think it through when a couple of young lads asked if we were caching and helped us out. We were in the right zone just needed to poke around a bit more to find it. Thanks boys.

Searched but no luck !

We were out and about visiting new areas for us, and grabbed this one. There were a few people enjoying the beautiful evening, thanks for bringing us here and for the cache.

Walked along the Anderson inlet trail and at this beautiful little beach suddenly decided to check if any geocaches in the area. Thankfully this one two metres from where we were standing. An easy find for geohubby.

Found it after 30 mins Knot too far from a rock???

Bj found

Find #1404 logged at GZ at 18:13, will update shortly.... T4TC Gonefishen07!

Having a few days in Venus Bay with sulkybear and our geokids (aged 3 & 5). This cache actually took heaps longer to find than it should have! But finally had it in hand and signed. Love this beach as it is great to walk the dogs at. Thanks for the cache

Great quick find.

Got it just as the rain started!

Tough one! TFTC.

Yay! After a DNF in January, I was finally back down here and ready to have another go at this cache. I can't believe I missed it the first time! All in good condition cache-wise, but there was no sign of the mentioned rock. The tide was so low today that people were taking advantage and walking across to Inverloch. It is pretty rare to see the inlet THAT low with only a few channels of water no deeper than waist height. I found this cache with my mum who signed as DD. Thanks for the cache!

Pleasant day walking to the inlet. Found it with my daughter, Sorcha86. thank you

No go jo for me today but there will be other days. Thanks GF07 FTH.

Aggghhh, just as I was about to search for this one, a group of muggles decided that they wanted to check out the scenery, they looked as thought they were going to be there for a while so I moved without much luck for this one. BUGGER!!

Whoa...that northerly wind was blowing a gale, covering us with foam from the already king tide. A quick find. TNLN TFTC

After hunting for the newly published caches we decided to have a look for other caches in the area that we hadn't yet found. Glad to get this one. Fantastic reflections on the inlet water without a beath of wind this morning.

A quick find while on our South gippsland holiday. TFTC

Tftc.

Sup

Found on our "Making Memories" Tour of Mainland Australia.

Today we explored Venus Bay and surrounds using geocaching as our guide.

Picked a good day to cache as most cache sites were deserted giving us freedom to search. Lots of places to look but we eventually looked in the right spot., TFTC

No luck today. Was pretty snakey, so I wasn't too keen on bashing about the bush. I went in a meter or so but got scared and left haha. Maybe this is one for colder weather.

A bit tricky, lots of vegetation to look under but I eventually found it. Also picked up my first Travel Bug, now got to find out how to log it.

Dropped in TB to go on its travels.

#384 TFTC… after reading the hint and consequently looking for the 'rock' it took us a little longer… don't go looking for the rock, its small and hidden. almost took a swap, but didn't have anything to replace it with. ah well, next time

>12.50 pm 14/12/2013 - 2nd of 4 didn't finds for the day - with dgfb33. Disconcerted by the fishing muggle that kept staring at me when I moved into his sight. Hard to hunt between many visiting muggles too.

Muggled out after brief clear go.

Found with Gonefishen07 and Hearse068 whilst they were doing maintenance. TFTC.

Checked cache and add a new log while showing THTSGLD the area.

Thanks Gonefishen for bring us to this lovely spot. Took a bit of a search but finely came up with the cache. TN L cape barron goose. TFTC

Thought we had the exact spot - but no luck.

Found it with the kids, although some were getting a bit discouraged due to a few not founds. TFTC.

Great place tftc TBs paid a visit
