Golden Mahseer fishing
About Golden Mahseer
A legendary, powerful carp-family fish of fast Himalayan rivers, prized for hard runs in heavy current and a reputation as one of Asia's great sport fish. Anglers swim spoons, spinners and large flies through pools and white-water runs, often in remote gorges. It pulls relentlessly toward rocks, so strong tackle and abrasion-resistant line are essential.
Typical size: Typically 3 to 15 kg; trophy fish exceed 30 kg. Record (approx.): approx. 50 kg (varies by region).
