Endowed with a number of fast flowing rivers and streams, the fun of fishing in Himachal waters is greatly enhanced by the spectacular countryside. Stumbling, rumbling and swirling down rugged mountain valleys, passing through awesome gorges, canyons, alternating with pools and fiery rapids these waters harbour some of the country's finest fish fauna.
