Conservation first
Responsible fishing in Bhutan
Bhutan places great importance on protecting its natural environment and aquatic life. Fishing is regulated to ensure the conservation of rivers, fish species and ecosystems.
- A valid fishing permit is required before fishing in Bhutan’s rivers, streams, lakes or other designated water bodies.
- International visitors must be accompanied by a Bhutanese fishing guide while fishing.
- Fishing is allowed only in designated areas and during permitted periods.
- Certain fishing methods and equipment are restricted to protect fish populations. Recreational fishing generally follows regulated rod-and-reel methods, including approved fly fishing and lure techniques.
- Special conservation areas, including high-end recreational fishing areas, may require specific permits and follow catch-and-release practices.
At CAT Bhutan, we assist our guests with the necessary arrangements and guidance to ensure their fishing experience is enjoyable, legal and environmentally responsible.
