Get Ready for the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th
Rosarito is gearing up for an exciting fishing event as “Playa El Bebé” hosts the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition on Sunday, March 30th. The tournament anticipates a strong turnout, similar to last year’s participation of nearly 150 anglers from across Baja California and Southern California.
This event is part of the official SEPESCA BC calendar, with support from Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration, and organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association. The tournament is run by TJ Fishing Club, with representatives Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno spearheading the event.
The competition is the first of three selective beach fishing tournaments qualifying participants for the State Championship. The action begins at 5:00 AM with registration, kicking off fishing officially at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in concludes at 1:00 PM, allowing anglers who are in line by that deadline to be counted.
Participants can look forward to prizes across various categories, including children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species. In addition to the competition, there will be raffles and tasty local fish dishes.
Interested anglers 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. For more details on registration, costs, rules, and prizes, reach out via phone at 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or email at tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Additional information is available on their website.
Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, is providing financial support to help with event expenses.
Future rounds in the competition will take place 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 anglers will have the opportunity to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, slated for September 19-20 in Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco.
