An anglers' paradise. Himachal has several spots for both trout and mahaseer - as well as other fish. Acclaimed as the best sport fish in the world, both Brown and Rainbow Trout are to be found in Himachal's streams. Upstream of Rohru in the Pabbar valley, there are several spots ideal for fishing.
Chirgaon has the trout hatchery, and other sites are - Seema, Mandil, Sandasu, Tikri and Dhamvari; all are within 5 to 25 km of Rohru. Kinnaur's Baspa river in the Sangla valley also holds trout. The fish also abounds in the UHL river near Barot. Good spots on this beat are - Luhandi, the Puran hachery. Tikkar and Kamand. The upper reaches of the river Beas in the Kullu valley, and its side streams like the Sarvari, Parbati, Sainj, Hurla and Tirthan - especially the areas around Aut, Patlikuhl, Katrain, Raison and Largi - are excellent for the sport. These are all up-stream of the Pandoh reservoir and are close to, or on the Mandi-Manali highway.
