Himalayan Gold

There is power in gratitude. From the moment the plane's wheels touched down in India, we felt a profound sense of thankfulness for the journey ahead. What lay before us was not just a trip, but an odyssey through the pulse of New Delhi, the soul of Old Delhi, the spiritual heart of Rishikesh, and the remote beauty of Pancheswar at the Nepal border. As we journeyed, we captured not only our travels but the essence of what makes this land extraordinary—culminating in the search for the elusive Golden Mahseer, a treasure of Himalayan rivers. This is a story of more than just fish; it’s about the unbreakable bond that forms between a fly fisherman and his guide—a relationship that often transcends the rivers they wade, lasting a lifetime. Join us on this cinematic voyage of sight and sound, as we seek and discover the hidden beauty of Himalayan Gold.
