### Get Ready for 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 official state fishing competition on Sunday, March 30th. Anglers from all over the state and Southern California are expected to participate, following last year’s attendance of nearly 150 fishing enthusiasts. This event marks the beginning of a series of selective beach fishing tournaments, where participants can qualify for the State Championship.
Organized with the support of Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration, the tournament is orchestrated by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association and hosted by the TJ Fishing Club, led by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno. The day will begin with registration at 5:00 AM, and fishing kicks off at 7:00 AM. The competition ends at 1:00 PM, with a weigh-in for those in line at that time.
Prizes will be awarded in various categories such as children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species, with exciting raffles and local fish cuisine available. Participants interested in registering or receiving further details on costs, rules, and prizes can reach out via phone at 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or email tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Additional information is also accessible on their official website.
Victor Hugo Méndez, overseeing Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, announced financial support to assist with event expenses. Participants have options to register on the day of the tournament or pre-register at Pesca del Mar Outdoors in Ensenada or Fishing Crew Store in La Gloria.
Following this, the next rounds of the state competition are scheduled for April 27th at Sunset Beach in Ensenada, organized by Club Pura Vida, and on July 20th at Playa El Pabellón in San Quintín, led by Pioleros del Valle de San Quintín. Successful anglers will advance to represent Baja California at the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship in Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco, on September 19-20.
