**Get Ready for the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th**
Rosarito’s beautiful “Playa El Bebé” is set to host the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition on Sunday, March 30th. This popular event is anticipated to attract a large number of fishing enthusiasts from across the state and Southern California. Last year, nearly 150 anglers participated, showcasing the event’s growing popularity.
The tournament is part of the official SEPESCA BC calendar and is fully supported by the administration of Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda. It’s organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association, with the TJ Fishing Club, represented by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno, taking the lead this year.
This tournament is the first in a series of three selective beach fishing competitions that will determine who qualifies for the State Championship. The day will begin early at 5:00 AM with registration, followed by the official start of fishing at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in will conclude at 1:00 PM, with prizes awarded for various categories, including children’s and women’s divisions, as well as categories for different species, such as mojarra. Attendees can also look forward to raffles and delicious food featuring local seafood.

Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has supported this event by providing financial aid to cover expenses, ensuring a successful tournament.
Participants 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. The subsequent rounds of the state competition are 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.
