**Join the Excitement at the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th**
Rosarito’s picturesque “Playa El Bebé” is set to host the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition this Sunday, March 30th. The tournament is anticipated to attract a significant number of participants, with last year’s event drawing nearly 150 anglers from both the state and Southern California.
This exciting competition is part of the official calendar of SEPESCA BC and receives support from Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration. Organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association, this year’s event is hosted by the TJ Fishing Club, led by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno.
The “El Bebé” tournament is the first of three beach fishing contests that will determine qualifiers for the State Championship. Activities will commence early, with registration starting at 5:00 AM. Fishing officially begins at 7:00 AM, and the competition will conclude with a weigh-in at 1:00 PM, when only participants in line will be eligible to compete.
Prizes in various categories including children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species will be awarded at the end of the day. Attendees can also enjoy raffles and savor dishes made with local fish. Those interested in participating can find more information by calling 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or by emailing tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Further details are also available on the TJ Fishing Club’s website.
In a show of support, Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has provided financial assistance to the event organizers to help with expenses. Participants can register on the day of the event or pre-register at Pesca del Mar Outdoors in Ensenada or Fishing Crew Store in La Gloria.
Looking ahead, the following rounds of the state competition will be held 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. Top performers will earn the chance to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, scheduled for September 19-20 at Playa Manzanilla in Jalisco.

**Additional News: Rosarito Ready for the 2025 Tianguis Turístico**
Preparations are in full swing in Rosarito for the highly anticipated 2025 Tianguis Turístico, an important tourism event that is expected to draw attention to this vibrant region. Local authorities continue to invest in infrastructure, spending 22 million pesos on projects to improve Primo Tapia, among others.
While events like the Tianguis Turístico showcase the region’s development efforts, Baja California is also confronting environmental challenges. The combination of a dry winter and Santa Ana winds prompts increased wildfire risks, urging local agencies to be vigilant and prepared. In light of these challenges, programs supporting deported Mexicans have been expanded, aiming to provide assistance and resources for those in need.
These developments highlight Rosarito’s multifaceted approach to progress, balancing economic growth with social responsibility and environmental awareness.
