Heli-flyfishing in the northern Rocky Mountains

Experience the ultimate flyfishing adventure on these heli-fishing packages to remote lakes and rivers in the northern Rocky Mountains. Let our helicopters take you to where the action is! Accompanied by your expert fly fishing guide, your guides will whisk you off to the remotest of lakes and untouched watersheds. Daily fishing expeditions to such rivers and streams as the Graham River, Bernard and Clearwater Creeks to name just a few, will provide you with the opportunity of hooking wild Rainbow Trout, Dolly Varden (Bull Trout) or Arctic Grayling.....cast your flies into alpine lakes, some at elevations of 4,500 feet... accessible only by helicopter!

Heli-flyfishing in the northern Rocky Mountains

Inlets along the Peace Reach arm of Williston Lake have offered up to Rainbows as big as 24 inches and 18 pound Bull Trout... a truly unforgettable experience. Lunch each day will be a picnic affair, nestled down on banks of rivers, surrounded by the rugged peaks of the Rockies, or on a mountain tops beside a crystal clear lake... you may even have guests while you eat as this is knows as the 'Serengeti of the North' and herds of caribou are not an uncommon sight here. Grizzly and black bears forage through the berries down in the valleys, making for great lunchtime entertainment.
