Snakehead, Murrel, Channa marulius of Kotepally, Vikarabad.

Dear Friends,

Kotepally lake is an amazing among all the places i've fished across Andhra, Telangana and Karnataka.

This lake has some monster fishes be it Catla, Rohu, Wallago or Snakeheads. I caught my life's first murrel at Koteplly. This lake was build on the forest area and there is  road in middle of the lake.

You can see this article on how to catch a murrel / Snakehead / channa marulius.

This fish was caught using the famous hyderabad fishing spoon.

Unlike in other places like Karnataka, Nagpur, and north India, It is very tough to catch a murrel in lakes and rivers of Andhra Pradesh due to massive netting done by fishermen.

Ather our team member had caught this fish at Kotepally and this is his first snakehead.
