Sport Fishing is one of the adventurous activities offered by our company for many years. Nepal has a dense network of rivers and streams, as well as numerous lakes of cold water character. Nepal is a landlocked country, with snow-clad Himalayas, eternal glaciers and lucid lakes. These vast stretches of inland water support many and varied forms of freshwater life including fish. Many wild and scenic rivers and lakes of Nepal provide opportunities for recreational fishing.

Nowhere else in the Himalayan region can one find hundreds of kilometers of fine and crystal clear fishing waters, teeming with mahseer, snow trout, fresh water eel, and catfishes as in the upper reaches of the rivers Gandaki, Koshi and Karnali of Nepal. Angling in such beautiful waters amidst glorious scenery is a rejuvenating experience. The playful frolicking of fishes in the Himalayan rivers is a sight worth seeing sight.
Fishing can be done throughout the year. However, the best season to go fishing on the white waters is before and after the monsoon i.e from February till April and October to November. Some popular fishing areas are Karnali, Betrawati, Indrawati, Babai in Bardiya, Chitwan's river confluences, Dolalghat on Kodari Highway and Pokhara's lakes. Fishing is all the more fun in mountain streams. In the Terai river catfish, murrel and crap are found in abundance. There are some specific ethnic groups in the hills and Terai region of Nepal whose lifestyle has been based on fishing. Bote, Majhi, Tharu and Machhuwar are some of them.
