History
Formed in 1987, AFN began operation with the release of our flagship publication, Freshwater Fishing Australia magazine. Over the years, publisher Bill Classon has branched out into an online magazine with Fisher Online Magazine, and AFN has become well-known for producing quality fishing books, reference materials and online streaming of fishing videos.
AFN also has a strong presence in video media, with a range of DVD series (including Sport Fish DVD and the AFN Tactics Series), and a television program, The Fishing Show, which airs nationally on 7mate. AFN has also branched into online video streaming with their streaming service Fishing Show TV, and also a reality competition series, Charter Boat Wars.
Now a progressive publishing and mail order company, AFN has expanded its range of exceptional fishing products to include items that every angler of every style, needs and uses. Always on the lookout for new products to help the angler and outdoor enthusiast, AFN has something for everyone.
