John E. Cache's Flying Fish Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

GrandpaGene: Unfortunately, the land this cache is on has now been posted for No Trespassing. I'm afraid that based on other things, somebody has new plans. I've already found a possible new site for the FF.

Geocache Description:

I thought this should be a fairly easy cache, but apparently it is not less than a "3." It is close to water so adult cachers should warn any munchkin cachers. There is good parking close to the cache off the major streets.

My friend and class mate from Fishburne Military School, class of 1961 who goes by the caching name of John E. Cache is an avid fly fisherman and a very good one. In fact he demonstrated fly fishing during the opening of the Hampton Bass Pro. This rather unusual cache container came to me from my Monday caching buddy, T13Eagle291, who is a former student of mine. The cache container itself is the size of a nano, so BYOP and an extraction tool may be needed. FTF gets bragging rights. You may have to contend with gray, webfooted, feathered muggles, sometimes a romantic couple, sometimes a flock. In addition, from Thanksgiving to New Year's and at a few other times the stand may sell greens or other produce. Finally, a little CITO might restore some of the natural beauty of this place. Once close to GZ you will be shielded from muggle view, but the walk in is exposed. This should not be attempted at night.
