INDIANANGLER

Hi all,

Just registered my self today. Its a great site. I'm from chennai have been to the cauvery fishing camp on about four occasions. My best ever catch was a 67lb masheer a couple of years ago. Me along with 8 other anglers from mumbai have planned a trip to Beehmeahwari next month. Will keep you all posted on our trip.

Yeah yeah heres another one thats got the better of good ole me ... 67lbs Owen ... i just gotta get that Mahseer ... I promise i wont put it in my tank at home

You sound a bit griped there Fred! You can put it in my keeper net if you like!!

Well, when you feel so shitty, think about me sitting here all alone in Hong Kong and not fishing at all..

Hi Vinod,
Welcome to the forum!
When are you at Bheemeshwari ?
Regards
Owen

Hi Vinod - Welcome aboard..

I agree with Bobby. The poor bugger is all alone in another country

Freddie, on the other hand, i have heard can literally cast into the sea from his bedroom.. And if he cant get the angle right, I heard owen say that he's got two bloody expensive fish that can give a good fight if hooked..

Owen - Don't feel sad mate... Just don't tell theses buggers about the mermaids you have caught

Ahh the Gav has risen!
Mermaids, whats that
No such maids in the south mate. Please check with the salty's

Yes, Fred lives in Mermaid Central (AKA Jelly Bums)

You guys look like you walked out of the Great Indian Laughter challenge ... and Bobster ....U used to live there tooooo

Close Fred, but not quite...

Hi Owen,

I'm going to be in Bheemeshwari from Nov 9th until the 12th

Vinod

so how did it go?

I don't think they have the internet at Bheemeshwari...

Touche Rusty

just being proactive

Hey Guys ... todays the 13th ... Lets see some results ... or are we just going to say no luck

Well i do know that the Bheemeshwari stretch was muddied up on the 9th and 10th due to rain upriver, cleared a bit on the 11th and much better yesterday, although the water level is a little high.
If Vinod had any luch it would have been on the 11th, and an early morning session on the 12th before check out.

Owen you were right about the water condition on 10th, 9th was ok. on 10th the water was muddy and rose about a foot higher. We were a group of 8. On 9th we had one cat, on 10th no luck in the morning in the evening we had 3 big cats. on 11th the water had gone down and was clearer and I landed an 18 pounder silver(catfish pool) and three of them landed 15-18 pounder silver. We lost about 4 good fish due to current and line snags. on 12th one person landed a 25 pounder Silver. I lost one at tiger pool due to line snag. Over all we had a good time. We loved the "rapids".on 11th and 12 th there were too many anglers, most of them have come from Germany/Italy for abut 10 days.

Good going considering the conditions Vinod.
Any Pix
Regards
Owen

Yeah Cmon post the pics --post the pics--- post the pics

Yes Vinod... Please post the pics as Freddies got his panties in a bunch .. Lets see some pics of the Cats ...

This posts gone Gav ... just saw the man online

Just 3 of them Vinod, and one of them is Dirk from IA

I'll post a couple from my cam as the others are all over town and will post them as i get it. Sorry no pic of the cats as they headed to the grill staight away.

Hey Owen - How important is water colour for fishing in these moving waters.. Please explain ?

Freddie -

U work Gratis is GE .. dont they monitor youre movemnts to check your yield per diem ?

They promote multi-tasking

Probably the most important factor besides water level and water tempreature Gav.
The fish seem to go off eating once the water colours up badly.
The only thing that may coax them out is a chilwa or a bright spoon cast under a shining sun.
Having said that, there are some lucky sods who have landed very big fish in coffee coloured water (i have seen pix of these conditions), and one of Alexis early posts shows a rather large fish with the water in pretty murky condition.
The thing is that as the water is beginning to turn murky, you could have some good sport (probably the fish sense that there are bad times ahead, and eat as much as they can), after that it is usually down to small rods and worms for carp, cats, wallago attu.

Its true Fred, age and wisdom go hand in hand...

Hey Owen - What the fluff is the Wallago Attu ?? Pix please

The Wallago Attu is the fresh water shark my friend. Another name for it is the Mulley. Will have to bring you up to scratch on our fish.
All you seem to dream about is Catla /Rohu /Mirgal.
I have some good books to take forth your education matey!Here's a picture of the mulley courtesy Mission-Mahseer.

Hey Owen I could not open the images you sent o tme on my hotmail account .. Hows the Rowen initiative coming along

Mr Bosen - Link is not opening..

Image shack is a pain to use Gav, sometimes it works, and sometimes it don't.
Regards
Owen

It didn't work coz you pasted the wrong link. I've corrected it for now.

Bops

I just love Neptune

Let me see you guys reaching 50 and remembering half the stuff old man Bosen remembers

No respect these youngsters have, wat say Owen

Once the imageshack page opens up showing the picture and the different URL choices select the one highlighted in red in the picture below. Then copy that link and paste it in your new post. There's no need to do anything more than that. Hit preview to see if the post will come out ok before selecting submit.
