Corporate Fly Fishing Days and Events

 

The English chalk streams are the most famous fly fishing rivers in the world, and until recently access has been difficult to come by, especially for larger groups. For most fishers, and no doubt for many of your prospective guests, they remain a distant dream. For you, however, they are now within 90 minutes south west of London and are easily reached from most of the south of England. (see factfile)

We can arrange a magical day for you and your guests. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect setting than the banks of a chalk stream. In impossibly beautiful surroundings, you can spend private time with totally relaxed clients enjoying a fascinating sport.

Your guests may be complete novices, who will relish a new challenge, assisted by our team of qualified instructors, or experts who will appreciate the scarcity and excellence of such fishing.

Whether you are entertaining an individual client or a larger group, we will have an idyllic location to suit the size and experience of your party, and can provide equipment, guides and hospitality all of a standard that compliments the fantastic sport and the delightful setting.

What a day out, truly magnificent and a real treat. The fishing and the setting were all and more than I was expecting and hoping. It has been a lifetime’s ambition to fish the river Test, and now I’ve done it, I can’t wait to do it again!

Peter Mills
Guest of Halliburton

Thank you for providing us with such an enjoyable day; it exceeded all our expectations. Everyone has commented about how much fun they had.

Jack Inglis

Many thanks for another tremendously successful Cazenove fishing day. We had a particularly discriminating selection of clients and they were all delighted, both with the fishing and the lunch.

Robert Pickering
Chief Executive, Cazenove

Quite simply, it was a fantastic day and we have never had such a positive and enthusiastic response from our clients.

Prizes and gifts for group days:-
  • Engraved Fly Boxes
    Richard Wheatley fly boxes engraved for your companyOur engraved Wheatley fly boxes make a popular memento of a great day, as well as ensuring that all your guests have from the start of the day our own selection of flies, carefully chosen for the exact season and water being fished.

    For corporate groups the host company’s name will be engraved along with the date. For private parties enjoying, for example, a birthday celebration, a legend such as “Steve’s 60th Birthday - July 5th 2002” gives guests a special reminder of the day to take away with them.
    Please note: we do not normally engrave less than 6 boxes with one legend.

  • champagne prizesChampagne
    Usually presented with a few words from the host at tea time, bottles of Bollinger champagne can be given to guests for biggest fish, first fish, or to celebrate some unusual event. One enthusiastic guest was given a bottle for body piercing, after somehow hooking his own navel.

    Framed and signed limited edition fishing prints or maps of the rivers Test and Itchen. The Bourne Rivulet map by Sir Michael Tims is a recent addition.
