Fishing enthusiasts, mark your calendars for March 30th as Playa El Bebé in Rosarito hosts the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition. With high expectations for participation, the tournament is set to bring together anglers from across the state and Southern California, following last year’s attendance of nearly 150 participants.
This prestigious event is organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association and has the full backing of SEPESCA BC. Hosted by the TJ Fishing Club, represented by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno, the “El Bebé” tournament is the beginning of a series of selective beach fishing events that will determine who qualifies for the State Championship.
Registration begins at 5:00 AM with the official fishing commencement at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in will close at 1:00 PM, ensuring that all competitors who arrive on time have their catches evaluated. Various prize categories are available, including divisions for children, women, and specific fish species like mojarra. Additionally, attendees can enjoy food made from fresh local fish and partake in raffles.
