Current Goal

To visit as many caches near water as possible - lakes, ponds, streams, rivers, seas, oceans, etc. If it's a park with a big lake or a fishing stream in it, that's cool too. And if at all possible, I'd love it to make its way to Barnegat Light, New Jersey, and Duck, North Carolina.

About This Item

Hopkins Travel Bug

This is a Hopkins fishing lure that used to be my father's. I grew up fishing with my dad, mostly salt water surf fishing at Barnegat Light, New Jersey, and on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This trackable is in his honor, so please help it to visit as many caches near water as possible. And if the cache is a fishing-themed cache, even better. And I'd love it to make its way to Barnegat Light, New Jersey, and Duck, North Carolina. Snap a picture if you can - I'd love to see where it travels. Please keep it moving!

My student, Caleb, gave this to me to move since I cache much more than he does.

Ok. I thought I didn't have it, but it turns out i do. Currently in my possession. I am in northern NJ, so I am getting you closer to your goal.

By the way, cool lure.

Little bit of a mixup here...but it got straightened out. This cache is along a cool little creek.
