Just Home and Still Buzzing

Arrived home late last night and my head is still buzzing from our trip to India, the Mahseer of Southern India's River Cauvery are for me the ultimate challenge and experience, no other fish and no other place fire my imagination and set my pulse racing like the Cauvery.


T joined me on the trip and not only did she take some amazing pictures but she also caught over 100 Mahseer herself using barbel gear she landed fish up to 25lb so well done to her.



I set myself a target of a 50 this year, best before the trip was 35lb, did I beat it you bet I did I smashed it with the best Cauvery fish of this mahseer season at an amazing 83lb


More words and pictures to follow but we must unpack and wash away the smog and dust of Bangalore.

Thanks T for a great trip some stunning images and most of all for being there when I caught the fish of a life time
