Angling Fishing

Jim Corbett is the best destination in India for fishing. The Ramnagar River, which flows through the park, is home to a large population of fish, especially Mahseer and Gunch.

Several mahseer species such as the Golden Mahseer, Silver Mahseer, Black Mahseer, and Guncha significantly found in the river flowing in and around the park.

The ideal fishing spots in Corbett are Matwash and Rikavasi. The Kosi river is known for its abundant population of Mahseer. Betalghat and Chhara are places for your fishing nets.

For fishing activity in Ramnagar and Kosi rivers, you have to take permission from the forest officials as the fishing spots are within the limits of Corbett Reserve Forest.

Although mahseer fishing is not allowed in Corbett National Park, you are allowed to see these beautiful fish up close in the clear deep waters of Ramganga and Koshi river in Uttarakhand.
