INDIANANGLER

apoo / angler-ali, thanks for the welcome.

angler-ali, well one story where a mahseer wasn't to be seen or wasn't even being sought, I'll try and keep in brief:

1982. Bangkok which in those days was 'excessive' and wife and I needed a break. Local travel agent says one word 'Kashmir'. Flights and houseboat booked (I had no prior knowledge of Kashmir).

Houseboat owner suggested trout fishing / readily agreed / Drove (ambassador of course!) straight to the bailiff's lodge / fished the morning / sat on the bailiffs lawn / BBQ the mornings catch / fished afternoon / returned to Nagin.

Fish large? Not at all. Plenty caught? Just enough to feed us for the day but it was just one of those days that angling can provide and even after 27 years I still recall every step. Absolutely magical experience.

(If Kashmir is recommended for trout these days please do advise).

Will load up some mahseer shots when I get home.

Cheers lads.

ahh! Sir Masheer by him self. welcome your highness

If only I could work out how to post pictures I would give some evidence to support the 'mahseer' tag.

Here are the pics

Thanks Fred your a gentleman.

No I didn't pull the last shot out of the Cauvery this is Malaysia and the reason I havn't been on the river in 2 seasons but will hopefully be there November.

Cheers lads
