Fishing Trips by Helicopter

Reid Heslop Helicopters offer a wide variety of fishing adventures from trout fishing in our spectacular remote back country to deep sea fishing charters in the Marlborough Sounds.

With three generations of helicopter flying experience in the region we know where to take you for that ultimate catch and enjoyable day out.

Trout fishing:

The Nelson Marlborough region offers some of the best brown trout fishing in the world. For over 20 years the Reid family have been transporting locals and visitors from all over the world (some very famous) to some of our best known fishing spots. Guides are available for day trips or if you are already familiar with the area you have the option of day trips or overnight hut stays.
