Nepal Travel Activity Himalayan River Fishing

Himalayan Masheer Fishing (River Carp) - When the British arrived in India, they heard lengends from the locals of the North Indian communaties, that within the rivers coming out of (at the time forbidden) Nepal there was a fish that was pound for pound the fierset fighter in the world. A fish, tht would simply shred fishing lines, drag poles, and would refuse to get caught. The mentality of the time would allow the inqusitive to try and prove the locals wrong. Little did they know, that within the Himalayan rivers, there was indeed, a fish so powerfull that when caught on a line would forgo swiming downstream, would stay on objective and swim upstream to get away; upstream, of some of the most powerfull rivers in the world. This is your chance to test yourself against this amazing fish.
