What game fish species are available in Pakistan?
Pakistan is probably one of the richest countries in terms of game-fish, we have it all, from Marlins to trout. The beauty of Game Fishing in Pakistan is that their equivalents to Australia and New Zealand some 100 years ago, most of the resources have not been fully explored. The PGFA team has compiled a detailed list, in the form of a Seasonal Chart, covering all the popular/common species and highlighting the best time to target each fish. A note of caution though, as mentioned earlier, Pakistan’s game fishing is at a very nascent stage, new species are caught every year, as anglers employ new methods and alter old ones. So feel free to participate in making this list more through than it already is!! In freshwater, we have the famed Mahseer and trout, in addition to Snake Heads and various carp species.
