Ramganga. Ramganga river flows through Corbett National park and is the lifeline of the area. The wilderness and flora and fauna makes Corbett National park an ideal destination for your trip. It is a region surrounded by dense forest with presense of great wildlife such as tigers, leopards, elephants and around 600 species of birds and a lot more. Ramganga is located only 300 km nort-east from Delhi. So this is an ideal program for businessmen or traveller staying at Delhi and for all those seeking new adventures.

Fly Fishing, Spin Fishing. River Ramganga offers a great opportunity for golden mahseer and gounch angling expeditions. It is a pure wild experience which involves great fishing with overnights in wild. Fishing in places where very few anglers have casted for mahseer with local fishing guides is a different experience. Their stories and knowledge will make one realise the how legendary is the forest and how fortunate one is to be there. Ramganga is probably the only fishing destination where one can cast right inside tiger territory. The largest mahseer caught in this part of Ramganga river is amazing 70 lbs.

Spin Fishing Tackle. We suggest long handled and medium-heavy action spinning or casting rods with plenty of power for hook setting and pressuring big mahseer and recommended for 1-3 ounce lures. If you wish to bring your own, we highly recommend bringing three or four-piece rods. Reels should have a high-speed retrieve ratio. Bring at least two rods and reels, just in case of break.

Lures. Bomber Long A Minnow 4-6' colour Silver Flash, Yo-Zuri wobblers in different colours: silver/black, green/gold. Mepps Spinners number 4 and 5, colours silver and gold.

Fly Rods. Fly rods should be fast action models, because they load lines more efficiently and generally have more power than softer models. Bring at least two fly rods, because they often break under the 'jungle stress'. Recommended fly rod is a fast action, 9-foot, 7-10 weight rod with matching good quality reel with disc drag.

Fly Patterns. Popular streamers include 4-6-inch (1/0-4/0) bi-colored, heavily-dressed bucktails in red/yellow, olive/white, black/white. Big Deceivers, Bunnies, Zonkers, Clouser Minnows and other flashy bait-fish imitations all take fish. Fly shade seems more important than colour depending upon light conditions. For this reason have an adequate selection of light and dark patterns. We recommend that you bring at least two dozen streamers, hooks should be razor sharp.

Accomodation and meals. Accommodation standard will be combination of hotel, forest rest house and jungle camp in remote regions. Well trained and experienced staff will take care of your appetite, the food is wide range of Continental and Indian cuisines.
