GC16QWN Gone Fishing (Traditional Cache) in Illinois, United States created by VerrueckteFrau

This cache has been archived.

VerrueckteFrau: With great sadness I am archiving this cache [:(]
It's just not going to work out in this location anymore and I could not find a suitable alternate location.
This was my personal favorite cache, and I really hate to see it go away, but this little fishy will not return to Weller Creek.
If any of the previous finders can think of a good location for this container/setup, please let me know!!

Thank you to everybody who enjoyed this cache and posted fun logs for me to read!

Geocache Description:

Located in Weller Creek Park in Mount Prospect, along Council Trail. There is no need to scramble down the creek banks to find this cache!

The creek has very steep banks, and the park is basically just grass and the trees along the banks, so despite there being a lot of muggle houses facing it, pretty much the only muggles you have to watch out for is the dog-walking group.

I repeat: There is no need to scramble down the banks of the creek to find this cache!
Please put it back exactly the way you found it in order to ensure that this statement stays true!

This cache is dedicated to my husband (Youperboy), who loves fishing - and who thought I was absolutely nuts (yes I am) when told him about my idea for this cache.

This is not quite a straight-forward cache - let the name of the cache be a hint to you in your search!

---------------------

Congratulations to Geogil for FTF and BAT1800 for FTL - I'm glad you guys only "almost" went swimming! After all, it wasn't intended for anybody to get anywhere close to the water level here :)
