Andy,

There are no shops that actually sell fishing gear in India.

On Indian Angler they have some stuff for sale,try there too.

For that send a Pm to Gasramgandu.

Best would be to order online,from Cabelas etc.Works out most economical.

Even better if someone is coming into India,who will carry the stuff for you.

Andy,

http://www.stikage.com is a Co based out of Delhi they sell camping & fishing eqpt,a very neat package for Rs 2500/-

Telescopic rod with reel & line,hooks,floats etc.This stuff is from China,great value for money.

A friend who is part of the PHG uses it with great results.

Cheers

Sanjay
