Tennessee Cast & Blast Adventure
A morning in the uplands and an afternoon on the water — a fully customizable East Tennessee cast & blast combining a preserve bird hunt with a guided fishing trip.
Two of East Tennessee's best pursuits in one trip.
Spend part of your trip walking managed upland cover behind trained bird dogs, then head to the water with one of R&D's trusted local fishing captains. It's a great fit for experienced anglers, first-timers, and mixed-skill groups alike.
Depending on the season, water conditions, and your group's preferences, fishing may include brown and rainbow trout, hybrid and striped bass, and smallmouth bass. Both fly fishing and conventional spin fishing are available.
À la carte, built around your group.
Hunting, fishing, lodging, bird releases, and guide fees are priced separately so you can build the trip around your schedule and budget.
