Fishing

Some of the best fishing in the state is available in the fall and spring as trout and salmon make their way upstream on the Sheboygan River. Anglers must provide their own fishing gear and purchase applicable licenses. Guide service is available by advance reservations.

Clay Shooting Sports

Sharpen your shooting skills at our year-round shooting range featuring both International Trap and 5 Stand. The compact five station course provides an invigorating workout for the experienced shooter. Each station simulates different wild game as it's being flushed - "running rabbit", "springing teal", etc. Trapshooting provides novices with basic shooting skills and is a fun, competitive activity for groups. Equipment and instruction are available. Also available is an outdoor pistol/rifle range.
