Really, really really seems it taint here, and perhaps CO does not geocache anymore??

Thinking this one may need to be checked on as there seems to be alot of DNF's
With no fisherman trying their luck today we thought we would try our luck, had the opportunity to have a good look for this one with no joy. Phoned 2 friends, GPSr was spot on and still no luck.
This doesn't look like it's been found for a while, reading the last few "found" logs we are thinking that there is a generic error found and the other "found" said they didn't find it.

Did not find. I'm hoping it was the long winter grasses that prevented m&d finding this. Muggles fishing but they were too zoned out to notice me.
Found at 20:25 with Olga. It took its surprisingly long to find.
I have been meaning to stop at this cache for many years, but only think of it as I cross the river on south road, and by then it is too late to stop.
I came fishing here once, many years ago.

Out for a walk around the Reserve with muggle daughter who often runs along the paths here. I'm not into running so just a brisk walk this evening. We were lucky that there weren't any fishermen and not another person in sight. Muggle daughter found the cache before I was even near.
Thanks for the cache and for bringing me here !mike.

Found on another great day out with FeatherWaite, Freddo, Malco!, MtnLioness, Mr Scoobster, TigerMuffin and *Cache_or_Check*. Thanks !mike for the cache.
The last time I was here, there were dozens of anglers along the bridge, while the steps had fresh paint all over the handrails, etc, so conditions were less that ideal.
My return today, with the remnants of the Onka Octet, now down to six, easily found this one.
Thanks for the cache, !mike

Walking to a different cache we were told we were actually stepping on another one. A quick search later and 5 new names were in the logbook.
Bit embarrassing to find this one, only because we were heading to where we thought the cache was hidden and then by accident we stumbled across the cache, made things really easy fun still alot of fun, BEWARE a lot of "Muggles" riding bikes. Oh yeah we replaced the cache as we found it but placed a bit more cammo over it as it's hiding spot was a bit to obvious.
For the first time in months I spotted the area free of fisherman and pounced on the opportunity and was in and out in a matter of minutes. TFTC.
First for the day and it's always good to start with a find !
Quickly located by Mrs DISK.
TNLNSL.
Thanks !mike.

Missed it the first time but found it an hour later on way back after a few other caches.
Shouldn't have paid any attention to logs about sticky surfaces as it left me poking around at twigs on the ground instead of actually looking.
T f t c. Great cache hide. Australian Bittern heard booming from the reeds close by t n l n.
found while on my lunch break should have brought fishing rod with me TFTC
Found it, then spent 10 mins advising muggles what I was doing and what geo-caching is all about !
Getting used to it by now.
I left a small goodie for the little ones.
Found it !! A few fisherman about today . Turning out to be great weather now so off to find a few more tftc
Number 3 for the afternoon... Saw lots of fish from the bridge but the fisher people weren't going to catch them.. fish not interested.. ha ha ... TFTC...
Finally found on third attempt! Wouldnt have been hard if we'd looked on the right side in the first place. Figured it out, when I touched the 'sticky' surface mentioned in previous logs, and knew I was looking in the right place. TFTC Mike.
With some fishermen close by I decided to take some photos to make it not quite so obvious Quick sign and log for this one TFTC
I was on the other side of the freeway and couldn't figure out how to get down to the bridge. I didn't have a road map, so I had to figure out a way to get to where I wanted to be.
I finally found the small road that led to the parking lot, and made the find very quickly. The container is extremely sticky - covered with something that they sprayed near GZ.

No one around when I retrieved this one but just going to return it to its hiding spot when a couple arrived to walk their dog. Took a picture of the setting sun to pass the time while they moved on. Left Geocoin & crab.
With 5 or 6 groups fishing on the beach, I needed to be quick - I got in and out without a blink! TFTC
Found on a detour from Amy's Ride. Only did the 30km route, and gave myself plenty of time for the caching. Great day out and a fun cache. Thanks.
no.8 for the day with jasekell..easy find although alot of muggles around being Queens bday.

Quick find by Muffin as a start to our morning run around the Onkaparinga. Must ride that bike trail at some stage too. I can remember when this used to be an old decaying railway bridge. T telescope L skatey TFTC !mike.
Well this was the best one for the day for Hubby as he is a train buff so he was checking out the bridge. Took a blue car and left blue/clear stone

15 people could not find this one, but a lovely spot. Hopefully this one is still there, and if he is he is a slippery little sucker, as we are one of three DNF'S. TFTC
This little brown fellow eluded me today - maybe my caching radar needs to be warmed up. I'll come again.
Really enjoyed this one and super smart hide. Amazing how it's still there. Cheers
Found with the geofamily while showing first time cacher dref how it's done.
Had to try and look inconspicuous while a lone fishermuggle passed by as we were sitting on the steps filling out the logbook
Thanks for the lovely walk and exercise!

I wasn't sure of the best approach to this cache, but ended up walking down the bike path. Once there, the GPS led me virtually straight to it. Nicely hidden. Thanks for the cache.
Found with Liz and Bruce, Ma7:7hew & Someuser on a run down South.

Cheers and Happy Hunting from Southern Cross Caching

Good size, full of stuff. Took monster, left Lego-man. Thanks for the effort in building and hiding.
Found by Michael & Holly. This was our second visit to this cache. The first time we visited this cache we were just starting we have got better now though. But thanks to someuser we knew where to look. Love the hard drive magnets. Great idea of hiding it.
