Geocache Description:

This cache has a small twist. It is located at posted coords, BUT, once you locate it, you will have to use your wits to figure out how to retrieve the cache from its little perch.


One fish, Two fish, Red fish, Blue fish,
Black fish, Blue fish, Old fish, New fish.
Once you reach ground zero, you find a little riddle,
Because the LOG itself is in the ‘middle’.
The clues below might help in your quest,
I’ll tell you this, but you’ll have to do the rest.

Oh dear, oh dear! I cannot hear.
Will you please come over near?
Will you please look in my ear?
There must be something there, I fear.
Say look! A fish was in your ear.
But he is out. So have no fear.
Again your ear can hear, my dear.

Our little fish are tender hearted, please be careful with them. It only takes a little bit of logic, NOT brute forceto coax them out of the hidey hole. If you have to yank or shove, then you ain't doin it right. We want this cache to be around for a long time for all to enjoy, please help us take care of it by not abusing the poor little guy
