Full Day Heli-Fishing Flyfishing Trip

We run heli-fishing trips on multiple rivers throughout Southcentral Alaska, which is easily accessible from the Anchorage area. Our single day heli-fishing trips provide an amazing remote Alaskan river experience with much more ease than what you can accomplish on the road system.

This is a perfect trip for folks who want a wilderness trip/experience but don’t want to spend their whole time in Alaska in one remote location. Most trips depart from the beautiful town of Talkeetna in the shadow of Denali. Denali provides an amazing view as you are flown out to some of the most phenomenal fishing in Alaska. Depending on the time of year we target all 5 species of Pacific salmon. Huge bruiser rainbow trout are always present as well as Arctic grayling and Dolly Varden. Just like all our trips all fishing gear, tackle, food and drinks are included in the price of the trip except a fishing license which is easily purchased from the state. These trips can even be booked fairly last minute but more notification is always better when involving air travel. Please feel free to call or email to find out more information on these amazing trips!

Once the location is decided we will come pick you up or have you follow us out to the lake. Once we get there, guests and guides will walk out on to the lake and up goes the warm portable pop up ice shelter and out comes the ice auger to drill through the ice. Hot drinks or cold beer are readily at hand throughout the day, and a heater is churning away keeping the hut toasty and warm. We also provide homemade chili as a delicious hot snack. Everyone gets a fishing pole to pursue a variety of fish such as rainbow trout, Arctic grayling, juvenile salmon, black fish, and Arctic char. We also provide comfortable seats and ice cleats to help you make your time on the ice as comfortable and easy as possible. We provide almost everything you will need to have a great day out on the ice! Guest’s need to come prepared with their own warm clothes and footwear. After all, this is ice fishing Alaska style!
