For beginners, there is a lot of fun in fishing with lures at Hazekura. The feeling of the crank hitting the bottom, the weak but clear bite of the goby in your hand, the delicate trace of the lure to make the goby notice and anger it, and many other game elements are included. The key to winning is to slowly lure the goby while hitting the bottom with a lightweight crank. Occasionally, black porgy and sea bass other than goby are also caught, which is also a happy thing, and this is the charm of Hazekura! For bait fishing and carnivorous goby, we will hold a fishing school for barracuda and horse mackerel lures with fat crank lures and worms. Barracuda, characterized by a slender silhouette and sharp teeth, is a popular target that can be easily targeted at fishing ports and embankments. It is a ferocious fish eater that actively attacks and preys on other fish, and it responds well to lures and attacks boldly. It is also a recommended target for beginners who are thinking of starting lure fishing. In addition, the horse mackerel worm has a tail that moves subtly and gives off a smell, so even beginners and children can easily catch horse mackerel. The rods and reels are light, so even children can participate in light jig and crank lure fishing. Bait will also be used at the same time, so children who are tired of lures can switch to bait fishing. There will also be a class on how to fillet fish, how to make dried barracuda and horse mackerel, with a focus on the delicious-to-eat fish, the Japanese goby. Duration: 2.5 hours Items to bring: cooler (ice), hat, drink Items to be prepared here: one set of fishing gear, bait, several coaches We look forward to your participation.

Stop at Shiratori Shrine to pray for a safe journey, stop at a roadside station, and have a barbecue with all the participants right next to the river for lunch! Stop at a hot spring to soak your feet in a foot bath as you cycle down the 25km stretch to Gujo Hachiman!

Enjoy an elegant moment surrounded by flowers. Even if you are new to flower arranging, you can participate with confidence. Anyone who likes flowers or is interested in flowers is welcome. You can take the completed arrangement home on the day. Flower arranging is a field of flower design that was introduced to Japan in the early Meiji period along with changes in lifestyle, and in a broad sense, it is a general term for flower shapes excluding corsages and bouquets. In many cases, it refers to things made by inserting them into absorbent foam or displaying them in a container. Unlike ikebana, it does not matter where or how it is made, so it has come to be used for various purposes such as interior decoration and gifts. In Japan, where the four seasons are clearly defined, there was originally a custom of enjoying seasonal flowers. In modern times, there are fewer opportunities to feel the four seasons in daily life and it has become simplified, but through flowers, you can enjoy the rich seasons even more. You can obtain qualifications from the NFD (Japan Flower Designers Association).
