THANKS FOR THE TIPS CHAPS!

Gerry,
Think you are the same guy I've spoken to about this on another forum.
Someone on here will correct me if I'm wrong but i don't think there is a lot of mahseer fishing to be had unless you head towards the Himalayas - or certainly not that I'm aware of.

You could try doing a search, I'm sure there must have been discussion on this in the past.
Good luck wherever you end up, if you want any info on tackle let me know, or I'm sure others on here who get to fish the area far more than me will be able to offer advice.
I've always lure fished when I've been in the north, Mepps spinners and shallow diving and jointed plugs have worked for me.

Might be worth someone contacting a Delhi newspaper to run a story on the water, especially if it looks like they could damage it when they build the new road. In the UK as soon as the papers get involved people are a lot more careful as they don't like bad publicity (i work for a weekly UK angling magazine myself).

Pretty much the same as the national press here then and the view of the general public with regards fishing, but when it comes to conservation people cause a lot of fuss, especially bird watching groups.
I can understand where you're coming from though, i know people involved in tiger conservation who have lots of problems even getting interest in that!
