Rajiv Ramnath — founder of Elite Fishin'

Built by a guy who was sick of the same problem

Before Elite Fishin', being a serious angler in this region meant juggling chaos. One app to find a charter. A WhatsApp group for the next tournament. A random post to sell your old reel. And zero places to actually prove you're good at this — no leaderboard, no bragging rights, no record of the fish that nearly took your arm off.

Rajiv Ramnath didn't dream this up in a boardroom. He's spent his career in marketing, working with some of the biggest brands out there — but on weekends, he's just another angler chasing the next bite, same as you.

He got tired of watching the sport he loves stay this disconnected. So instead of complaining about it at the dock, he built the fix.

Home Waters, Global Ambition

We're based right here in the region — Sharjah, UAE — and we're building for anglers who know these waters better than anyone. But we're not staying local. Elite Fishin' has already hosted international events, and there's a lot more on the horizon for anglers who want to compete on a bigger stage.
