PS: IG what you think about fishing conditions around mid-December at Bhakra? Can one expect a decent size mahseer at that time of the year?

Kanwar!

Check a thread tittled Winter mahseer. Fishing is good as long as you get the right depth and more importantly if the fish are biting.

Would it be ok, if i attended a day or so?

Too early to commit as of now.

I will definitely attend such meet in the next year.
