Mark your calendars for an exciting day at Rosarito’s “Playa El Bebé,” as it hosts this year’s first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition on Sunday, March 30th. The event promises to gather a large crowd, attracting countless anglers from across the state and Southern California.
Organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association and supported by the local government, the tournament is led by the TJ Fishing Club representatives, Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno. The event is a key part of the selective beach fishing tournaments aimed at qualifying participants for the State Championship.
The day kicks off early, with participant registration opening at 5:00 AM, followed by the official start of fishing at 7:00 AM. Competitors must ensure their catches are weighed by the 1:00 PM deadline to be in the running for prizes across various categories, including children’s and women’s divisions, as well as competitions for different fish species. Attendees can also enjoy raffles and taste local fish specialties.
For those looking to compete, registration details including costs, rules, and prize information can be acquired by calling 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or by reaching out via email at tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Additional information is available on the event’s website. You can register on the day itself or beforehand at Pesca del Mar Outdoors in Ensenada or at Fishing Crew Store in La Gloria.
Financial support from Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has been instrumental in organizing this event and covering costs.
The competition continues its journey with the next two rounds slated 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 best performers will earn a spot to represent Baja California at the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship in Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco this September.
