Mahseer fishing tours are conducted on the Ramganga river in the periphery of Corbett National Park and higher reaches of the river. Fly-fishing and spinning the rivers offers great pleasure to the sportsman, who is called upon to pit his skill to outwit the mighty Mahseer.

 

Angling here is subject to permissions available from the forest department on advance notice.

 

Anglers will have to bring their own equipment. Local fishing guides, who are highly experienced are deputed with anglers. We provide transportation, camp equipment, packed or fresh meals and fishing gillees. One can use a few good pools in river Ramganga for Mahseer fishing.
