New Zealand Sport Fishing (NZSF) is a not for profit organisation recognised by SPARC (Sport & Recreation New Zealand) as a National Sports Organisation (NSO) representing the sport of marine angling.The organisation was originally founded and incorporated in 1957 and was then named the New Zealand Big Game Fishing Council. Its purpose and its reason for being established has altered and expanded since then with its 59 member clubs now promoting all forms of marine fishing, not just big game. Clubs hold many  hundreds of tournaments throughout New Zealand every year, working in their local communities to grow participation in marine fishing and encouraging youth participation.Many tournaments benefit local and National Charities.
