Get Ready for the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th
Rosarito is gearing up for an exciting event this March 30th, as “Playa El Bebé” is set to host the first round of Baja California’s prestigious state fishing tournament. The event is anticipated to attract numerous anglers from across Baja California and Southern California, promising an exhilarating day of beach fishing.
The tournament forms part of the official calendar of SEPESCA BC, with backing from Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration, and is organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association. TJ Fishing Club, spearheaded by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno, proudly hosts this inaugural event.
This tournament is the first in a series of three selective beach competitions that will determine who qualifies for the State Championship. The event kicks off early at 5:00 AM for registration, with lines cast officially starting at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in will close at 1:00 PM, ensuring all participants in line by that time will have their catches counted.
The day concludes with prize distributions in multiple categories like children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species. Attendees can also look forward to raffles and savoring local fish dishes. Interested anglers can find information about registration fees, rules, and prizes by contacting the organization through phone numbers 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or via email at tjfishingclub@gmail.com.

In a show of support, Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has provided financial assistance to the organizers to ensure the event runs smoothly. Enthusiasts can choose to register on the day of the event or pre-register at Pesca del Mar Outdoors in Ensenada or Fishing Crew Store in La Gloria.
Upcoming rounds of the state competition are already on the horizon, with the next event scheduled for April 27th at Sunset Beach in Ensenada, hosted by Club Pura Vida, and on July 20th at Playa El Pabellón in San Quintín, organized by Pioleros del Valle de San Quintín. The top competitors from these rounds will earn the chance to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, slated for September 19-20 at Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco.
