Archiving this one to allow for more caches to be placed in a better area.

We have found and logged this, and will now collect and disable the cache under instructions from the owners.

Three adventurous Geo animals ventured out for a day on the Yorkes.
This was a quick find for the venturous trio.
Today's target was to do this series from the bottom end.
There were jokes and stories.
It was a fun day, with plenty of laughs.Tftc

* Generic log *

The usual Wednesday wanderings for a few of the puzzled animals had us targeting a number of this Gone Fishn series that has been on the books for some time. We have acquired smileys for quite a number of them with many more to go. Today we started at the end of the series slowly working our way back to the top of the Peninsular.

All Caches were visited by a Starfish, a Rat and an Adder.

Over 100 were found in around 3 hours but there are many more to complete.

Thanks for the series and the caches Fishy Tales.

Today was another Wednesday wander for members of Befuddled Puzzle group. [^] We headed over to Yorke peninsular to find some caches including some solved puzzles, some fishy tales and anything else we happened to come across.

Quick find and stamp on this one.

Only one of the three goals from last year achieved. So once again trying and fill my calendar with multi-caches and complete loop 11 again this year. [^] For my third goal I will try and get my DNF numbers to single digits. That should keep me busy again this year! [:o)]

***Thanks Fishy Tales for putting out this cache and maintaining it for our enjoyment. ***
Logs prepared and published through GSAK.

Went for a wander down the big boot with Purrfect Di and Jack.

Found some caches!

tftc Fishy Tales , yours was one of them!

Some down the very end here seem to suffer from farmers, traffic, sheeple, harvesters....
A little TLC was attended, rock by fence post.


Season's Greetings! Avoid germs - avoid people - cache the countryside!!!

Another DNF. Unusual for me.

This was found as we wander this great country
While having a great day out
thank you Fishy Tales for placing the cache

Found cache was either missing or damaged has been replaced

Searched for a while

TFTC just having a wander around Yorkes picking up a few caches as we go

Hello third day, nice weather some replace and damp sheet log and most of worn but will survive... signed the log as EV as my stamp is lost at Port Pirie and thanks to the CO group.

Day 197 (Friday 13th) of our trip. Caching along the way. Leaving Pt Wakefield today. A total of 11 for the day and 4005 for the trip. TFTC

Nomads travelling in their caravan around Australia. We have been on the road since July 2011 and discovered caching in August 2013. We travel with a bunch of travel bugs belonging to our sons and grand children.

After veging out (non caching) at Daly Heads for three nights, it was time to move on and find some caches, if we are reach #5000 at Millicent.

Camped in Warooka, and doing a few caches nearby. Happy to catch the tail end of this trail. Thanks Fishy Tales

The geobros are out in force on yorkes today! DjHamdog (GeoNav), Matt.wicks27 (GeoCap), CamerCache (GeoDriver), Muggle Ben and Muggle Eadon. TFTC! No issues unless listed above.

Nice easy find

Spending 2 nights at Point Turton enjoying the magnificent views it has to offer.

With the skies blue and the winds calm we made a start!

This cache was found and we were able to add our name to the logbook! The contents were very damp though.

Thanks for creating this power trail. We really appreciate the time and effort that was put into creating it.

Log on Gone Fishin' 001 and Gone fishn' 868 - found this and many others during a great day with KaA (Kiwis and Aussies) Everyone with different caching styles, energy levels and countries came together and gave this series a good tickle. TYFTC and the series

Whew. What a day. It all started about 2 years ago when I asked for some assistance to do this route, to attempt it in one 24 hour day. But it would need at least three people, and was not going to be easy. A few months ago I got some interest and suddenly we had the numbers and it was on! Built some strategies for shaving seconds, like having someone else ready with the stamp, and I even came prepped with replacement containers for maintenance but was told the CO had given us some and we would not need mine. Turns out we did which was a bit of a bugger as i did not bring them - there is a lot of maintenance needed on this line, ever after the COs new containers went in.
We started with a early night's sleep and were at the first cache way way way too early for any sensible person. Thankfully the vast majority are really easy finds. The number of times I got out of the car only to have someone else get out the other side and say "Found it" ever before I rounded the car was amazing. Take two steps, turn around, get back in. Ended up walking around the car just to make getting out feel useful. Of course, I did it to them just as often! Lots of amazing stuff. Strange temperatures: got to 42 degrees!, strange animals: emu, brown snakes, stumpys, frill neck lizards, and so many ants that I think Australia must be made of them. Man, you grow your ants large!
At the end of it we were shattered. Big sleep in.

All part of a bigger holiday with way too many kilometres and probably too much geocaching. But just the right amount of awesome friends .

All caches signed as KAA or stamped with the KAA pirate stamp while the ink lasted. KAA are the Kiwis and Aussies - Mar1sa and the Seagnoid for the Kiwis, skuzzybear, Munja and DavidWazza for the Aussies.

A long weekend with a massive amount of geocache finds in the Yorke Peninsula! The weekend was filled with a loong day of the fishing line power trail, followed by a subsequent day of the geoart at the peninsula bottom. I managed to squeeze in a night scuba dive, and then it was a slow return home finding a few geocaches on the way. An unexpected enjoyable weekend than what I thought it would be, with great company from locals Munja and skuzzybear, and visiting Kiwis mar1sa and the Seagnoid.

Today's efforts were a long one, to say the least. The plan was the completion of the Gone Fishn' trail, and we ended up making it within the day. We stayed at Wallaroo to lessen the driving to the start of the trail, waking up just after 04:00 hr. It was a little later than anticipated departure, and officially commencing the trail from Kulpara at 05:20 hr. It was a tiring start, but thankfully we only needed to contend with a small amount of darkness before the head lights and torches were stowed away. The first 100 went by quickly. From there, we settled into a routine, just as any marathon runner did. We then celebrated #200 and #300 milestones, with some banter in between on the radios. The zig-zag between #429 to #550 did feel a little slow even though we really didn't have time to focus on the big picture. We were going so well, that we ended up making the small detour into Minlaton after #585 for a fuel top-up and lunch to recharge our own batteries. Once everyone was back in high spirits, we got back into the rhythm. The last few hundred felt really slow as the long day became evident, of which then I stepped up the social banter to bump up everyone's spirits. We ended up finding Gone Fishn' #868 and finishing in Warooka around 19:00 hr, just as the sun was setting. Cold beers were had to celebrate our success, with half the team had enough for the day and heading to their accommodation in Stanbury. Skuzzybear and I still had energy and determination to beat the previous finds in a day record, so we continued on to some of the geoart. In the dark, those were more of a nuisance, with some being found quickly, and others requiring a good 10-15 min search. We geocached until 22:00 hr, until we had enough, and I returned to Coobowie to retire after dropping off skuzzybear.

We had arranged to bring along some replacement containers to swap out any damaged or missing caches. We ended up using all 50 on the fishing line trail, with some sections in poor shape. However, the majority were reasonably good. Most caches were found quickly, but the ones around the stone piles caused a brief pit stop and search (but all were eventually found). Caches were stamped as a pirate (our team mascot), or signed as KAA (Kiwis and Aussies). Thanks Fishy Tales team with the massive effort involved in hiding, publishing, and maintaining this massive group of caches!

We had a 4am start to the day and finished in the evening, got to see a far bit of the wildlife and even had time to grab some photos. Big thank you for the placement and putting this series together this was the whole reason we cam here. Sorry about the copy and paste logs but i wouldnt be able to recall all the caches - All logs were signed under the name KAA - Kiwis and Aussies - made a great combo.

So today was the day, what me and the Kiwi tourists had been planning and waiting for, for about a month, the chance to take on the Fishing Line. We woke at 4 am, grabbed our gear and made our way to the start of the trail. Once we got our rhythm going, we settled into a good grove and the finds piled up quick and fast, it was looking like we would be able to complete this series in good time. After a while however, the monotony of our task set in and we had to focus ourselves to continue. We pushed on, through the finds, grabbing a few on the non-series caches that were on the trail as well. As the day wore on, we got closer and closer to our goal, though the sun sunk lower and lower into the sky. Finally, just as the sun was setting, we arrived at the last cache, number 868, and signed the final log with great relief. With that done we opened up the fridge in the back of the car to crack open a cold beer to celebrate. We toasted our successful run before finally heading back to our accommodation for some well-deserved sleep. All logs were signed under the name KaA (Kiwis and Aussies).

A nice afternoon for some trail blazing, a quick find for us today
TFTC

After driving over to Yorketown for a FTF hunt, decided to head to the end of the Gone Fishn' power trail to add a few more to my found list. Found 69, 2 DNFs before it was time to head back home.
Thanks Fishy Tales and all involved in the huge effort to get this rather long series up and running

Tftc!

Easy find
Cache all good

We parked the caravan up at Minlaton in the early afternoon and after setting up, decided we could get a couple of hours of the series in before light faded. All except 3 containers were found but as others had logged dnf's on those, we replaced them. Beautiful weather today and we noticed the grass starting to sprout after the recent rains. Great series and just our cup of tea caching back rural roads. Thanks Fishy Tales

Day 4 of the power series and the Duracell bunny is wearing down! But it will not and didn't defeat us. All caches attempted with 3 dnf on #804, 866, 865. We put out a new cache at #754 as it was clearly missing and the location was obvious. Today was a day of small critters, cache hides abounding with earwigs, ants, slugs and the odd spider. None to pleased to have their Sunday disrupted but then perhaps making a home with a cache isn't a clever idea if you want peace and quiet. Looking at the time we have spent on this series it is bloody amazing the work that has gone into setting it up for us to enjoy. Thanks a squillion for the cache and the series.

Today was planned as a numbers day, and although we got a late start, we are pleased with how many smileys we found. We mostly went Fishn' with one or two others to break it up.
We replaced one or two broken containers and didn't have many DNFs

For a long time we had been wanting to achieve the top badge in Project GC for number of finds in a day. We also liked the look of the Fishy artwork on the Yorke Peninsula, and so having booked our air tickets for a second geocaching holiday in Australia it wasn’t long before a plan was hatched with wazza9 and Nana Nel to meet up to achieve this goal. A date was set but on our geocaching route towards the meeting point we regularly upped the goal - first to 600, then to over 700, and then to why not find the lot? The big day arrived and between us we settled on a 04:00 wake up. The first cache was found at 05:08 and by 08:27 we had beaten our previous most finds in a day. By this stage a really good system was in place between the 4 of us, with wazza9 doing a sterling job with most of the driving, getting us all speedily from one cache to the next. Mr Team GBS sprinted to and from the majority of the caches closely followed by Mrs Team GBS, who then took off the lids and passed the log books to Nana Nel who spent the entire day doing a great job of busily unfurling the log books, stamping us all in and then rolling them back up again to return to the caches. Mrs Team GBS then put the lids back on, passing the cache forward to whoever was running, while keeping a spare in her hand at all times for those she found first, which was still a good number considering that the majority of the time she was running without a GPS. We took a short tea and coffee break at around 400 finds, and a late lunch/sandwich break at just over 600 finds. With plenty of daylight hours left our goal of completing the entire trail was definitely feasible, so now it was a case of finding as many more as possible before dark to ensure keeping everyone on board, so we somehow managed to up our speed to get back to the average of 1 cache per minute that we had temporarily lost as a result of our two breaks. Darkness fell with just 60 odd caches left to find - a now easily achievable goal - and so it wasn’t then long before we were all celebrating at the last cache of the series with a total of 870 finds. Mr Team GBS had to put his hand over Mrs (aka Just One More) Team GBS’s mouth when she said to him “Why don’t we make it 1,000 as we still have almost 5 hours left before midnight”! Thanks so much to the COs for having laid the trail so we could achieve our initial goal plus some, and for having made us realise that we really can run a marathon, having covered the equivalent distance running back and forth to the caches, especially as it seemed that the majority were on the other side of the road! Greetings from Zimbabwe, where today we found in one day 3.4 times the number of caches in our entire home country!

Found today with Wazza9 & Team GBS, all 868 in 14hrs 15mins, visiting all caches. Thanks Fishy Tales

TFTC,Fishy Tales, today we found 870 caches with Nana nel and Team GBS.

Read the hint TFTC

TFTC a quick find along our journey.

Day 2 of our 4 day geoadventure with Rapidlywild on the Yorke Peninsula. After a good nights rest in Port Vincent we headed out, grabbed a bite to eat and collected a few smileys around town before heading further south on the peninsula.

We attacked the Gone Fishn' trail in reverse, jumping from each side of the car. We also grabbed others near the trail, leaving a line of smileys in our wake. We contacted the CO before we started and with their permission, replaced any missing containers.

Thanks for an enjoyable trail, we saw alot of the peninsula.

Well, what a weekend! The FFLL ladies and myself decided to head over to SA to tackle the newest installment of the Fishy Tales caches, the Gone Fishin' series. Having a long weekend presented to us, and a day extra, we had a big task at hand to get them all done, but we did! There were many tears of laughter, exhausted bodies each night, and plenty of caches found. We even managed to score ourselves a few Earthcaches, Virtuals and even Webcams along the way as well as me passing my 10,000 find

Thanks for the cache hide Fishy Tales and a very special thanks to the FFLL ladies for an awesome fun filled adventure away Looking forward to the next adventure.

Gone fishn series today
Found it
Thanks for cache

No luck on this one.

A big day with Sir Spectre and gridge98. We completed the whole series today in just over 15 hours. We had a system going with me being the driver mostly and doing a bit of GPS button pushing while Sir Spectre was mostly the runner with gridge being the log stamper and right hand side cache finder. We had heat and sun in the middle of the day and finished with dark and raining. It was a great day with good humour along the way. There were a few caches along the way that we grabbed if we were close. The worst part for me of this experience is the nights at home logging all the finds but I'll do it again for the day we had. I think it's going to take me longer to log all the finds than it did for us to find them all. This is my eleventh session of logging, I much prefer finding them. TFTC

A long and arduous caching day trip was discussed between Sir Spector and myself with Alistair W jumping on board, to attempt to be the first caching group to complete the fishing line in one day.
ALL CACHES WERE STAMPED UNDER: MYSTERY RANDOMS
A little over 15 hours, 881 caches and the job was complete.
With Alistair W driving and a total of 10 finds his gps skills and from the car spotting cams in handy.
Sir Spector found majorly of the caches as the were on his side of the car. Myself finding still a few hundred but the hands became that black from using a stamp all day in the back seat.
Some caches were well away from GZ reading up to 20m. A few were replaced and some had more than one cache at GZ
TFTS The crew that make up Fishy tales.

This is a story about 3 blokes ( sir_spectre, allister w and gridge98 ) and 1 car, who decided to see if they could get the whole gone fishn' series in one day, and they did. It just took over 15 hours to complete, with a detour off trail to the petrol station at number 588 so we could complete the mission. Some other caches where stamped along the way for a total of 881 finds for the day. All logs where stamped " mystery randoms ". Allister was behind the wheel driving us around the trail and giving us advice out the window if he could see the cache and we couldn't and jumping out if we really having problems. 3 caches where found in paddocks, 1 on the wrong side of the road, some with several caches at gz, 1 that the last finder was in march and many with co ords up to 20 meters away ( assuming cache creep ). For the last 200 or so caches it was raining as well. Myself and gridge98 came across a snake at different gz's along the trail. Some caches where replaced as they had been crushed under rocks or chewed on and 1/2 the cache missing and some logs replaced as they where soaked since the last finder didn't screw the lid back on properly.

Day five of my geocaching trip with tmann421.
Day three on the Gone Fishin Trail. It has been a full on few days but the caches have been awesome and the numbers are great. The weather was a little worse today although no rain just a terrible wind and quite cool. The aim is to finish these caches before the end of the day.
Once again thanks Fishy Tales for the fabulous caches

On the "Gone Fishn" Trail with woolwood9 to finish the last part today
We certainly had another fun day and appreciate the big number of finds.
Strong winds again today with a few bits of light rain.

Thank you to those concerned in putting this trail out.

We have a small team travelling to The Yorke Peninsula from Canberra. It was decided by the group before we left that our team name would be DTY, although I act like the boss, I rarely am and so the initials actually stand for dty73, Tankengine and Youban.

We decided last night during dinner that we would finish this trail off today. If we kept the pace we had for the previous ones then we should be done in time for lunch. In fact we found that it was a much easier run than the previous 644. After a few nervous moments in places with long grass at points along the road, it then became easier and the last part of the run we did in a breeze, except one DNF that we just couldn't see and one cache that was almost a DNA due to the cache being hidden in a bee hive. Luckily Tankengine used a stick to flick the cache out and we signed and returned before the bees knew what hit them.

As with the first bunch, if I can remember I will place individual notes for caches with issues or points of interest.

Tftc and series Fishy Tales. We have enjoyed obtaining the numbers from this trip and look forward to completing some more soon.

Found with dty73 and youban on a massive days caching! All logs signed DTY (dty73/Tankengine/youban) - Caches were in all sorts of conditions from great to chewed in half! Logs were also OK mostly, but some were very waterlogged! We had a couple of DNFs and 2 DNFs due to Snake at the cache!!! Lucky they were late in the day, as that slowed us down a lot, making us much more wary and on the lookout for them! It was a long day, but the weather couldn't have been better, and the roads were dry! We spotted 2 foxes running across the road in front of us, and nearly hit a kangaroo - but we were going very slowly at the time! Very tired now, but need to quickly log these finds before we attack this trail some more tomorrow! Thanks for the company dty73 and youban, I couldn't have done it without you - not to mention it made this whole day fun! We are now all totally tired, and will sleep well tonight! Thanks for the cache Fishy Tales!

On a caching trip with Dty73 & Tankengine to Yorke Peninsula. Team signed as DTY. Day two was just as frenetic and we were determined to finish the run. Being a generic log we added any information relevant to this cache at the end. Thanks to Fishy Tales for the big effort in placing & maintaining this run. Kutgw

After a rough night at Port Rickaby we headed off very early for breakfast at Minlaton to begin day 2 of our rest, relaxation and rejuvenation week, with caches chucked in, the main aim of coming away early was to finish the Fishy Tales series, maybe look at 6000 by Mrs Emilys birthday, we don't seem to set easy targets anymore
Theres been a lot of whining about powertrails of late, we love them, Mrs Emily drives or sleeps, Mr Emily and the older kids fight and tackle their way to the caches while the younger ones draw, read or fight in the car, Its especially good now theres 4 of us that can drive, depending if we want an L or a P. TFTC

The Rats, steeba and Hoojar have teamed up for a York Peninsula adventure of massive proportion. With much planning and logistical coordinating, we had a great five days meandering the country roads collecting a plethora of caches. Our journey started with a handful letterbox caches before heading down the peninsula following the “Gone Fishn” series. We followed this up with an array of geo-art images that litter the lower peninsula. Returning to Adelaide we collected a gaggle of old and rare finds which included some interesting earthcaches and virtuals.

My apologises for the generic log, but thanks to all the cache owners and caching buddies who made the road-trip such a memorable and fun experience.

After a review of the geocaching map in South Australia it was determined a trip to the Yorke Peninsula would yield some significant numbers. So, The Rats, Hoojar and I teamed up once agan to tackle the many caches on the peninsula.

We started in the darkness after flying into Adelaide and the next day set some personal records (550+ caches in a day) and milestones before bunking down. The next day was another massive numbers haul which resulted in a bit over 1,000 caches in two days !

Then it was a little more sedate down to the bottom of the peninsula and then back up the easterly side, ticking off a few EarthCaches in the process .

After that, back to Adelaide for some night caching, virtuals and more EarthCaches!

The power trails on the peninsula were great- quiet roads, some great green wheat and yellow canola scenery, coupled with some great company and usual ribbing of each other [^]!

Thanks for your cache- sorry about the generic log. For the EarthCaches and virtuals look out for an email or two shortly.

TFTC!

This was a trip that had been some time in the making. A journey from Wollongong in New South Wales to the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia, in search of large numbers. Five days were set aside, and The Rats, Steeba, and myself planned the details out. Lofty numbers were floated; we could find one thousand geocahces... Maybe more! The world was our oyster, all we had to do was make it happen.

We flew into Adelaide and quickly rented our car, then headed off for a series of thirty letterbox caches late that night. We then set up camp, ready for the next few days.

Two days journeying down the Yorke Peninsular saw us collect 550 caches the first day, and 450 the next. One thousand caches in two days! The numbers were phenomenal, unheard of, and excellent! At one stage we found fifty caches in a one hour period! We worked ourselves into a solid routine, and managed to push these numbers without caching after dark. Incredible! We camped out beside the trail, ready to commence again the following morning.

Having reached our goal of one thousand, we rented a cabin and enjoyed a solid relax and beet, and we were then able to dedicate the remaining time to specific caches, mostly Earthcaches to keep Steeba (The Professor) happy, and a good number of Vrtuals as well, as we made our way back from the end of the Yorke Peninsular to Adelaide. It really became a Tour De Earthcache! If your geocache is such a hide, stand-by, as Steeba will soon contact you with our answers.

As is always the case with these trips, the company was the highlight, with banter non stop, the time went by in an instant.

We saw some amazing things, found some excellent caches, and had an absolute blast.

Ticking just over 1300 finds for the trip, you will have to excuse the boilerplate logs!

Thanks to all of the cache hiders for their efforts in placing and maintaining their hides. It was fantastic exploring this part of the world that I had never visited before. Thanks also to my geocaching partners, without whom such a trip would not be possible, nor fun!

Cheers

A few days ago we started on the Gone Fishn’ power trail with one goal in mind. Reach 200 by the way end of the day. Our previous all time high was 176, which we reached 4 years ago doing the Oz Mega power trails linked to the Murray Bridge event, and we thought we’d never get anyway near that total. Well, we were wrong! (Not that that happens very often). With an early morning start we found 305 the first day, and 250 on the second day. At some point on the second day we passed the 8,000 finds total, but we have no idea when this actually occurred!! We have also managed to pick up a fair few of the non power trail related caches around as we went. Today is day number 4 and our final day on the trail. We are starting to get tired!
We’ve had a few adventures on our way. Skidding through the soft muddy road on the first day after the rain, being held up by mobs of sheep, and then chatting with the curious farmers wanting to know just why we were stopping every 200 metres or so. We have also replaced wet logs and broken containers when needed.
What a mammoth job it must have been developing, placing and maintaining all these caches. Congratulations to the team. It’s blokes like you that keep us coming back for more.
Day three begins!
TFTC and the huge effort you have all put in for this power trail

Found as part of My Annual leave SA adventure, I had a great time touring the Yorke Peninsula and other areas of the state. This was My last day on the Gone Fisin trail, I sure was glad to get it finished and go look around a few towns, I was a bit over looking at wheat and canola. Thanks Fishy Tales (F=0 H=1735) for the cache.

Day 2 of our 2018 Yorke Peninsula excursion.

TFTC Fishy Tales

Attempting the 'Gone Fishn' series, and we are in the good company of Team Crackers, micaparamedic, Alansee & Phetlern - definitely a great bunch of people to go caching with.

We had 3 days in the area, and after the recent rain, some of the roads were muddy and slippery. The geo-cruiser was in its element.

We happily did some maintenance along the run, and Team Crackers took note of the ones that needed replacing or just a new log page.

On day three, we completed Numbers 809 to 868, having left a neat 60 for today. To save time and space, we logged as a group under the name of SNEECKS.

Many thanks for placing this series caches, Fishy Tales, for us and others to find.

With the aquatic geo-art smiling on our Yorke Peninsula map, the new green line to "reel them in" looked rather daunting!
A plan, similar in detail, to those made by pyro technicians was drawn up and together with Alansee, Micaparamedic, Team Crackers and The Drovers, we took up the challenge.
After the mud of day two, day three presented a new challenge. Each cache seemed to be across a water feature. A couple of caches were actually submerged today - perhaps that means we're getting closer to the end!

For economy of space, we logged as "SNEECKS."

Thanks 'Fishy Tales' for creating another intriguing trail.
22785

We joined forces with alansee, micaparamedic, Phetlern and The Drovers for an assault in this series .
We woke today at day 3 and were looking forward to finishing them all off and were very happy to see the sun shining and to find that the wind had abated a bit. The roads on this trek were all dry and an easy drive, no more slipping and sliding but a lot of the caches were marooned on little islands surrounded by water. Today we only had to replace three soggy logs and two containers, the second and the second last. We were all quite excited when we got to the last one and took off into town for a celebratory coffee only to find that they had none but we did spend the rest of the day collecting a few caches in the area at a much more sedate pace.

Many thanks for the caches, to save room in the log we signed as Sneecks,

Unfortunately goodlook was a non starter due to injury but the stickers were already made.

Found with Phetlern, The Drovers, Team Cackers, and Micaparamedic. We logged as SNEECKS to save time and space. This was the last day and didn't take too long wrap them up. This included a wet section towards the end but it was all good. Many thanks to those who put this series togther.

This one eluded us.

Team SWAGJJ is visiting the Yorke Peninsula this week to complete the geo art and collect traditionals, multis and other types along the way. Seeing some amazing country side and views as well. Thanks to all the COs for placing these caches.

Day 1 of our Yorke Peninsula collected. Collected the Boat and Fishy Tales artwork as well as a few other caches along the way. A very busy and fun day was had by all. Caches stamped with "SWAG-JJ" being the acronym of the cachers in our team. TFTC!

Found after a bit! Good series

Travelling down from Queensland with my fellow cachers Snickersallan, Waz and Vik, Ardom, Gcoven and JooJoo57. We have planned a week long adventure to collect all the geoart, the fishing line and anything else we can get. Thanks for the cache!

Day 1: Today we completed the Boat and Fishy Tales and some of the fishing line and traditional. We took some time and found a few previous finders DNF’s, also located two GZ that had two caches so we took the spare and replaced a couple where we also had DNF’s with previous finders DNF’s too. We are well and truly stuffed and will sleep so well tonight. Planned out assault for tomorrow where hopefully we will finish the art

Found as part of SWAG-JJ team. Thanks.

Day 2
Start at Gone Fishin 645 and end at Warooka. Day went that well, we done that plan and then cached our way back up to Minlaton before dark.

A Big week was planned to travel around South Australia, staying in Minlaton, Tarlee and Adelaide. We cache along a number of Trails, managed to grab a few off the beaten track, some well known caches and the odd one that
came up on the map as we were travelling around.

It ended up being a massive week of 2960 odd kilometers travelled, with day find counts of 25, 256, 361, 318, 66, 205, 104 and 76 (yep thats 1411 for the 8 days)
1062 micro, 238 small, 60 Regular, 45 large, 3 Virtual and 3 Other.

Found with FUF009.
Based in Minlaton for a few days to have a hack at the Gone Fishn' series, I found 250 caches today. We headed towards Warooka from Minlaton collecting the series and whatever else was along the way.
Once we'd gotten to the bottom of the trail we went around the coast and did whatever else we wanted in our free time.
We found that this section went a lot faster than expected so the extra caches were a bonus.
Highlites of the day for me was collecting 2 years of unloved on a multi and seeing the ocean.
An enjoyable day.
Thanks to all the COs for placing the caches. Nothing was wrong with them unless stated at the start of my log.
The Yorke Peninsula is a marvelous playground for geocachers and indeed we met more than one local along the way who knew what we were up to and very friendly too.
Fabulous.

Apologies for the generic log.

Found by Mary & David, in company with pprass (logged as MP) at 1124. Our thanks to Fishy Tales.

I am visiting the Yorke Peninsula from Perth and logging as many caches as I can. Thanks for your hide.

Found at 11:54 AM in the company of maccamob.

Thanks Fishy Tales.

Day 9 of the Perth to Adelaide trip where we started in Warooka and ended in Warooka.

Today was the day, the second main reason for the trip over, the start of the Geo Art trails on the peninsula. We had over 1400 caches saved off line and a variety of others to now find in the next 3 days prior to starting the drive home

We had planned this for quite some time and until we broke it down for caches to be found v hours in a day the thought of how long the days would be didn’t cross the minds until the night before.

Once we realised that it was going to be some full on 12 hour days we were up at the crack of dawn each day energised with a good nights sleep, phones fully charged and looking forward to the day ahead.

Today was like yesterday very repetitive drive 200mt Park, get out, find cache, log cache, get back into car, load next cache, repeat...... obviously though that process there were a few changes to that order when we struggled to find the cache however most were just like that.

We were lucky enough or unlucky enough to have one of the warmest streaks or weather in Adelaide in April ever with the temp above 33 for 3 consecutive days. On the peninsula it was up to 37 for the best part of the day.

Fishy Tales We found your cache Gone Fishn' 867 thanks for placing this power trail for myself and others to find. It’s large scale trails like this that we have travelled for.

Day 9 of BarnZy and Cravo’s trip from Perth to Adelaide.

Today we left our accomodation on Warooka, a little later due to chasing some FTFs on the Yorke Peninsula late last night and one even into the early morning.

Our plans today was to complete the last of the Gone Fishing trail and travel via some of the country towns of the Yorke peninsula on our way up to Port Augusta where we are staying tonight.

Had a great morning getting right into the rhythm of powertrail caching, and managed to knock over the last of the trail in relatively quick time given we were a bit weary from the last two huge days on the Peninsula chasing some massive numbers.

Overall a great days caching, we really love caching in the country towns, travelling the highways of the country. Thanks to the local COs for their hides.

Gotcha !!! TFTC

Headed out from Coobowie early this was our last find of 83 found morning tea

Fishn - still fishn. The tour of the area has been enjoyed by many so far - and we hope they keep touring and catching. A pleasure to beta fish here.

Thanks to Fishy Tales and **clear skies** from TeamAstro. [^] Cache the planet!

We have now completed four days of looking for caches in the Gone Fishn' series. So far we have visited 720 caches and found 703, logging DNFs for the other 17 caches. That leaves another 148 caches in the series to visit. We hope that we can achieve this on the fifth day of our time on the Yorke Peninsula.

From the first four days we learnt that the roads, although unsealed, were good and that there was little traffic. We also discovered that most of the hints are not accurate - when we arrived at a location we looked for something interesting to direct our search and that was more effective. On some occasions it coincided with the hint.

Unless stated otherwise, the coordinates for the caches we found today were accurate and the caches and their contents were in good condition. Thanks Fishy Tales for the cache and the series.

Found during an extended weekend on Yorke Peninsula. Thanks for the cache and series Fishy Tales!

Found with earthlight as we travelled back to Warooka from Inneston.
Quick easy find with hint.

Day 3.
Loving the emerging string of smilies.
Visiting from Vic to knock over this huge series.

Merry Xmas hard

We found it! It was hard!!!!

Claiming a find as a beta tester.

TFTC very windy day girls 4 boys 1

Late in the day I popped out on my own to find the last 5 in this long series as Goodlook had found them before.
Pretty easy finds though the grass was quite long so I had to be careful where I stood.
Just 750 or so to do!

Found as a beta tester with a great bunch of geocachers.
A real team effort involved in this series.

Today we com-leted the Gone Fishn’ series finding over 220 caches with Roostaman. Some were quick finds others required some searching. We enjoyed the back roads and a good time was had.

We appreciate the time and effort gone into placing this series for our enjoyment.

**# 18950** Found on the SA leg of our 2017 escape trip.
A perfect Spring day for the last of the Gone Fishin trail with Tassie Trekkers.
Hardly any muggles around on these roads, and many quick finds.
Still lots of rock piles and also spotted some snakes on the road.
Also replaced a few more missing caches, with one of the CO's permission.
Thanks for the cache and the series Fishy Tales,
***Roostaman***

found with jackylegs44 an Oohyeah a while back

Getting bored now, come on mogni, can we do some other caching.. No, just one more. TFTC.

Aussie Mary and I decided we needed a few days away grabbing a few caches, focussing on Multies and Earthcaches with the odd traditional and puzzle thrown in for good measure. Obviously this met the requirements so off we went on a cache hunt.
We only attempted a few of these... one, two, skip a few.... eight hundred and...
Thanks for the adventure from mogni.

Three Australians soaking up power trails in the Nevada deserts and highlands. Dusty, prickly, rocky. Great scenery. Love your work. Graders suck. A lot of caches replaced in some sections. Roads all good. Perhaps graders are not all bad. Three separate locals asked what we were doing. One had red and blue lights on the top of the SUV. Another had a gun on the gun rack. We do apologise for the generic logs. Thanks to all the COs for placing these here for our enjoyment.
