Punjab is inland, so fishing here is in rivers, reservoirs, lakes and ponds. Our species guide records 7 fish in Punjab (River and Pond & lake), including Rohu, Mrigal, Grass carp and Golden mahseer. Seasons on this page are for the Delhi area.
We have no seasonal fishing ban at sea on record for Punjab. Rivers, reservoirs and private waters can have their own closed seasons and permits — ask the State Fisheries Department or the owner of the water.
In November, our outlook shows these fish in season in Punjab: Rohu, Mrigal, Grass carp, Giant river catfish and Spotted snakehead.
Fishing inside National Parks, Wildlife Sanctuaries, Tiger Reserves and Marine National Parks is not allowed without written permission. Angling in reservoirs, dams and many rivers needs a permit or angling licence from the State Fisheries Department or the water's owner / lessee. Rules differ by water body and district, so ask the State Fisheries Department or the owner before you fish.
