A fishing experience on a quiet river near Asahikawa, Hokkaido, suitable for beginners. We provide all the equipment and offer thorough guidance, starting with how to cast the line. After fishing, we'll gather around a campfire and share stories about rural life and farming. Let's spend some relaxing time together, enjoying a local experience that you can't get as a tourist. The event will be canceled if it rains on the day or depending on the condition of the river. We will make a decision based on the weather forecast and river conditions up to the day before. We will let you know if the event is going ahead, so please be sure to check your messages.
