India
- the land to travel to, a haven of tourism delights,
a civilization to tour through. Tourists come to India
for its wealth of sights, cultural exuberance,
diversity of terrain and in search of that special
something, an extra punch that only India promises and
delivers. Teeming with over a billion people who voice
over a million concerns in fifteen hundred different
languages, India is where people live with variety,
thrive on diversity and are too familiar with
largeness to let it boggle them. Mud huts and mansions
face off across city streets. Lurid luxury and limp
living are inhabitants of the same lane.

Angling and fishing are two
remarkable adventure activities among the many
others that are offered in the India. They are
specially suited to the Indian sub continent
because of innumerable rivers that course
through the expansive Gangetic Plains, and
originate in the upper reaches of the
magnificent Himalayas. The clear rushing
waters of these various rivers and their
tributaries provide excellent fishing and
angling holidays spots that are captivating in
their crisp and clean mountain beauty, as well
as rich breeding ground of a number of
different varieties of fish. The adventurous
settings for angling and fishing range from
the majestic Himalayan valleys, snow-fed
streams and high altitude lakes to the wide
coastal stretches of the Arabian Sea and the
Bay of Bengal.
The Indian water world is home to a large
variety of fish. Some of the favorite fishing
prey here are the trout, mahseer and shark.
The Mahseer is the toughest fresh water
fighting fish in the world, and India is the
only breeding ground for it. Nowhere else in
the world does this hardy fish ever breed,
though in India you can find all four of its
varieties. The Golden, the Silver, the Silver
Grey and the Black Mahseers are all prey
worthy of any fishing aficionados attention.
The challenge of hooking a Mahaseer is a
tremendously exciting one for this fish is a
fierce fighter that weighs over a hundred
pounds and has a matching reputation for its
quicksilver litheness. Angling Holidays of the
redoubtable Mahaseer requires skill, strength,
practice, determination and speed. It is
rightfully called the 'tiger of the water' and
puts up a reckonable fight. The best time to
angle the Mahseer is when they return after
breeding to chase the shoals of minnows.
There is also the choice of attempting to
angle for the crafty trout or the menacing
shark in the rivers and seacoasts of India.
Trout is found in two different varieties
namely, the brown trout and the rainbow trout,
in India. Hooking a trout requires you to be
on your guard and prompt use of your wits.

hand with conservation, and after having
caught your fish, shot your picture and
recorded its weight it is best to release it
into the water again. The Indian Protection
laws enforce that conversation of animal life
should be mandatory with this adventure sport.
Anglers from all over the world come for trout

streams and high altitude lakes of the upper
Himalayas.

fishing adventure holiday would include rods,
line, hooks, spoons, and reel. There are
excellent tented accommodation facilities
provided by adventure tour operators amid the
beautiful Himalayan environs and riverbanks of
India. Otherwise, forest rest houses or the
forest bungalows also make for a good night's
stay when on an adventure holiday in India.
The fresh water lakes like the Dodital
surrounded by the Himalayan peaks are
excellent for the catch regardless of the
season. The Cauvery Fishing Lodge near Mysore
is renowned for Mahseer. The hill stations of
Munnar are ideal for fishing in the streams of
Kerala. However, Kashmir remains the angler's
paradise where early mornings and late
evenings are best times to indulge in this
sport. For those who want to combine it with
another sport, there is the option of
adventure trekking, which can be clubbed with
angling, and you can fish in one of many high
altitude lakes that are 14,000 ft. above sea

life. Solitude seekers can spend hours in
