Australian Recreational Fishing Foundation

What is ARFF?

 

The Australian Recreation Fishing Foundation is the national representative organisation for recreational fishing in Australia. Together with our members, we strive to support Australia’s 5 million recreational fishers and promote ethical, sustainable, and enjoyable fishing.


Key Resources

The Australian Recreational Fishing Foundation, in collaboration with the Fisheries Research & Development Corporation, is proud to announce the release of the RecFishing Research; RD&E Plan, 2024-2029, which has been developed to strategically address the needs of the Australian recreational fishing sector over the next 5-10 years.  In developing the plan, RecFishing Research was able to leverage the extensive reach of ARFF’s member organisations to identify the issues most important to the future of fishing in Australia.

THE NATIONAL FISHERIES PLAN

The National Fisheries Plan aims to support and empower all sectors of the fishing, aquaculture and seafood community. These sectors are commercial, Indigenous and recreational fishing (marine, lakes and rivers), aquaculture and post-harvest. The broader fishing, aquaculture and seafood community also extends to those involved in fisheries research and members of the general public who consume seafood or otherwise have an interest in fisheries.
