Get Ready for the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th
Attention all fishing enthusiasts! On Sunday, March 30th, Rosarito’s “Playa El Bebé” is set to host the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition. This eagerly anticipated event is expected to attract a large number of anglers, much like last year’s tournament, which saw nearly 150 participants from across the state and Southern California.
As part of the official calendar for Baja California’s Department of Fisheries (SEPESCA BC), the event is backed by Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda and organized in collaboration with the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association. This year’s tournament will be hosted by the TJ Fishing Club under the leadership of its representatives, Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno.
The event marks the first of three qualifying tournaments, where competitors aim to secure their spot in the State Championship. The day will begin at 5:00 AM with registration, and the fishing competition will officially start at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in, which closes at 1:00 PM, will determine the winners, with those in line by the deadline still eligible to compete.
Participants can expect a day filled with excitement, including prize categories for children, women, mojarra, and various fish species, along with raffles and delicious local fish dishes. To register or learn more about the fees, rules, and prizes, interested parties can call 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or email tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Further details are available on the TJ Fishing Club’s official website.
To support the tournament, Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has provided financial assistance to help cover event-related expenses.
Anglers can sign up on the day of the event or pre-register at Pesca del Mar Outdoors in Ensenada or Fishing Crew Store in La Gloria.
Future competition rounds will occur on 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. Successful anglers will earn the opportunity to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, scheduled for September 19-20 at Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco.
