Although using the helicopter to access a remote fishery can be extremely rewarding, anglers need to realize that this option is not a guarantee of superb angling, but rather a means of seeking the maximum angling potential on any given day.
Truth is, most of our largest trout, and our most productive days are on helicopter fly outs.
Rangitikei Anglers is located in the South Central North Island, surrounded by large mountainous areas in the East and North. We have a good working relationship with a helicopter operation in Taihape, which allows us to provide relatively economical helicopter fly-outs. This is based on 2 anglers sharing the ride. The price differences relate to the flight times, and relative to the distance of the river from the helicopter base. Guide fees are in addition to the helicopter rates.
