Join us as the global community of recreational fisheries researchers, managers, practitioners, and policymakers gathers once again to celebrate innovation, collaboration, and the advancement of sustainable recreational fisheries.

Since its inception, the WRFC has established itself as the premier international forum for presenting cutting-edge research, sharing management experiences, and strengthening the links between science, policy, and practice in recreational fisheries.
From understanding the motivations of anglers, to valuing fisheries’ contributions to economies and well-being, to shaping resilient management in the face of ecological change — the WRFC has always been at the forefront of defining the future of our sector.

As the first WRFC to be held on the African continent, WRFC11 offers a unique opportunity to experience the cultural richness, biodiversity, and dynamic fisheries landscapes of South Africa.
Through a diverse and engaging programme of keynote talks, workshops, scientific sessions, and field experiences, WRFC11 will explore the critical role that recreational fisheries play in conservation, livelihoods, tourism, and community identity worldwide, as well as its ecological footprints.

We invite you to share your science, build global partnerships, and inspire the next generation of recreational fisheries leaders — while experiencing the vibrant spirit of South Africa.

We look forward to welcoming you to an unforgettable gathering at the 11th World Recreational Fisheries Conference!
