We fished different types of breams, Groupers of medium sizes. Our boat got stuck for a while, we filmed the wildlife of the mangrove forest including the white-bellied sea eagle, pelican, water snakes, octopus, mud skippers the dolphins.

Mangrove Fishing Sindh:
Mangrove fishing in Sindh, especially along its coastal areas, offers excellent opportunities due to the rich and diverse marine life found in the mangrove forests. The province has several key spots along the coast, such as Karachi, Thatta, and Badin, where the mangrove ecosystems thrive and provide a habitat for a wide variety of fish and marine species.
Mangrove Wildlife:
Here’s an overview of the wildlife found in Pakistan’s mangrove areas:
1. Marine Life
Mangrove forests serve as nurseries for many marine species, providing shelter and food for fish, crustaceans, and other aquatic creatures.
• Fish Species: Various fish species use mangrove habitats for breeding and feeding, including snapper, grouper, seabass, and mullet.
• Crustaceans: Mangroves are home to mud crabs, shrimp, and prawns. These crustaceans thrive in the muddy, oxygen-poor waters of the mangrove ecosystem.
• Other Marine Species: Mangrove areas provide food for sea turtles, dolphins, and small sharks, which are often seen near the coastline or in the estuaries.
2. Birdlife
Mangrove forests are essential for both resident and migratory bird species. The areas around the Indus Delta and coastal Sindh are particularly important as they provide nesting sites, food, and shelter.
• Waterfowl: Migratory waterfowl, including flamingos, pelicans, and waders, use mangrove areas for feeding and resting.
• Herons and Egrets: Species like the white egret, black-crowned night heron, and western reef heron are commonly found in these wetlands.
• Kingfishers: Mangroves attract different types of kingfishers, which hunt fish and small amphibians in the shallow waters.
• Raptors: The eagle, buzzard, and kites can also be found in some mangrove forests, often hunting smaller birds or fish.
3. Invertebrates
The mangrove areas in Pakistan are home to numerous invertebrates, which play essential roles in the ecosystem:
• Mangrove Snails and Mollusks: These invertebrates feed on detritus and algae growing on mangrove roots, helping in nutrient recycling.
• Mudskippers: These unique fish can be found in the intertidal zone of mangrove forests. They are capable of walking on land and are an important part of the food chain.
• Barnacles and Crabs: Fiddler crabs, ghost crabs, and hermit crabs are common in the muddy soils of mangrove areas. They help aerate the soil and form an essential part of the food web.
