Company Information
Helifishing is simply accessing remote fishing spots in a helicopter and in doing so being able to see and do things that no other form of transport can offer. Firstly a flight in a helicopter for most people is one of the most amazing experiences that flying has to offer. The ability to fly slowly, hover, ascend and descend vertically are only some of the flight characteristics helicopter flight offers.
A helicopter gives you the ability to access many places that cannot be easily accessed any other way. So for fishing this gives you the ability to get to isolated and often untouched locations where the fishing can be totally brilliant and the areas are usually spectacular.
Helifishing is more than just fishing. The flight to your fishing spots will take you over some very spectacular and isolated country including vast floodplains, rivers, wetlands and billabongs. Flying in the top end of the NT offers scenery that rates up there as good as any in the country.
Due to the unparralled visibility of our R 44 helicopter your visual experience and photo opportunities are second to none particularly with the doors removed. Helifishing is suitable for all ages and children of all ages are very welcome as long as they are accompanied by an adult and supervised.
