Art - what part of India and for how long? It's a pretty big country and travel around the country isn't exactly quick or easy in many cases. I have no firsthand experience, but have read up quite a bit on it. Masheer is the "big" fish that people often travel to India to catch. A lot of the Himalayan streams have brown and rainbow trout stocked too, I'm sure some have developed self-sustaining populations. The next few months is monsoon season, which can make the fishing pretty difficult in some of the rivers, but I don't know enough about that and how different regions are impacted to give solid advice.

If you're game to travel around a little bit - which it sounds like you are give the Maldives note - I'd hit the Seychelles instead of Maldives. Travel time shouldn't be TOO much longer depending on the airport/location you'll be based in. In fact, if you're in Mumbai, there's even a direct to Seychelles. Lots of Giant Trevally, Bonefish, and Indo-Pacific Permit. If you want offshore fishing, the Andaman Islands would be a pretty good choice, but you probably won't be able to fly fish much.

Will be in India in a few months and am looking for any advice on fishing there.

I gather there is river fishing for Golden Mahseer through Yellow Dog outfitters and there is fishing in the Maldives, although haven't been able to get more information about the latter.

Does anyone have any experience with these destinations or any other suggestions?

Thanks for any advice,
