Sengal, Shovelnose catfish, Singhara - Salik Khan of Hyderabad

Dear Friends

These fishes are from the catfish family. In Hyderabad we call it as sengad, singhara in north India and shovelnose catfish across the globe.

This is a predatory fish and bottom feeder. It take all kinds of dead and live baits required you set the bait at the bottom. We enjoy catching this fish at Madhav reddy canal rapid waters because you got to be very alert while setting the hook.


All these fishes were caught using earthworms. We have been catching these fishes at Madhav reddy canala since very long time using earthworms.

Salik bhai caught all these fishes at Madhav reddy canal.

Salik Khan - Seasoned angler & the most admired adventurer of Hyderabad.

Dear Freinds,

Let me take the pleasure of introducing you all to Mr. Salik Khan whom we all call Salik bhai. He is one of the most admired and the best angler in the fishing community here in Hyderabad.

He is an adventurer at core with active participation in sport rallies, fishing, camping and many more activities across India.

I the last few years I fished with Salik bhai at Bhima river, Madhavreddy canal, Nagarjuna Sagar and around Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka.

Salik bhia has the perfect team and thats his strength. Yes he has a team to assist him in all his angling and adventure activities. Most of the time he is out for fishing, sometimes 15 days in a month.

I saw him catching so many big fishes specially big rohu and catlas. There are so many more photos that our angling community has not seen it yet. I will very soon publish them on this site.

All our team members and known friend admire him as one of the good angler Hyderabad and India has even known.

Mustafa Ali Khan seasoned Angler of Hyderabad

Hi ,

These are very few photos to describe angler out of Mustafa.

He is one of the super carp anglers of Hydreabad. The passion and hunger to catch a big trophy took him to so many places around India.

I personally camped with him a dozen times in various places in Andhra pradesh and Karnataka.

I've learned a lot about carp fishing and so may bait recipes from him.

More catches reports coming soon.

Srisailam : Waters, Hills and fishes.

Dear freinds,

We had some lovely sessions at Srisailam, though i could not capture all of them. Caught some decent fishes of all sizes. These include Rohu, Catla, Mirgal, Kalbose & Wallago attu.

As usual the Wolleys were at their best. The best fight ever given by wolleys was only at Srisaila waters.

Caught plenty of Karmeenu / Pearlspots and tilapias using flour bait.

 

 

The best was the tilapia of more than 1.5kg. In a span of 1 hour we caught around 15 such big ones and imagine the fish cleaning person was also surprised to see such a big one.

 

This the location for Rohu, Catla & Tilapias
