The Cast and Blast – Fishing and Shooting Day
This combined fishing and shooting day is our most popular corporate day by far.
It is a combination of adrenaline fuelled shooting with the relaxation of fly fishing makes participants focused and relaxed. It is a real treat for your clients or team.
The normal agenda is for participants to arrive at around 9-9.30am and, following coffee, with a full English breakfast, or a bacon roll or pastries.
Then go out for an instructed session on the shooting layout followed by a fun, yet often serious, competition.
Lunch is served in our Fishing Lodge. During the Winter, we serve dishes such as home-made cottage pie and in the Summer it is often steak barbecue or a smoked salmon buffet (please see our corporate menu for choices).
In the afternoon, guided by our instructors, the participants head for the lakes, to catch a fresh trout or two.
This is a most relaxing part of the day, the gentle action of casting a line, will often get people to completely lose their thoughts of the office and work-related problems and become totally engrossed in what’s around them – the Fly Life, the scenery, the sound of the water and the activity of getting that fish on the line.
We have a full set of risk assessments, first aid and food hygiene certificates, which can be provided on request.

Variations
There are a number of variations on this theme.
You can of course have a full day of just fishing. This would involve learning the skill in much more detail and spending more time on the lakes.
You can also do a full day on the shooting layout. The day will be much enhanced by more team competition, including team flushes.
You can also do a half day of fishing or shooting or a half day cast and blast. This can be combined with a meeting to make a useful Office Away Day.
We can also incorporate Archery into your day and we have even done a couple of days on the farm – milking the cows and driving tractors.
- A full day of fishing or shooting.
