**Get Ready for the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito on March 30th**
Mark your calendars for an exciting fishing event taking place on March 30th at Rosarito’s famous “Playa El Bebé.” This tournament kicks off the official Baja California state fishing competition, promising a day filled with angling action and community spirit. Last year, this event attracted nearly 150 participants from across the region, including many from Southern California.
Organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association, this competition is supported by the state government and reflects a strong tradition in sport fishing. The TJ Fishing Club is hosting this year’s tournament, with leadership from Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno.
The “El Bebé” tournament is the first of three selective events that will determine who advances to the State Championship. Event festivities begin bright and early, with registration starting at 5:00 AM. Fishermen and women will officially cast their lines starting at 7:00 AM, and the weigh-in will close at 1:00 PM, welcoming anyone still in line to participate.
Prizes will be awarded across various categories, including children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species. Attendees can also enjoy raffles and delicious local fish dishes. For those interested in joining the competition, more details on registration, fees, rules, and prizes can be obtained by calling 664-493-6014 or 664-339-9173, or by emailing the TJ Fishing Club.
To support this vibrant event, Victor Hugo Méndez from SEPESCA BC has provided financial assistance to the organizers to help cover expenses. Participants can register on the day of the tournament or pre-register at designated locations in Ensenada and La Gloria.
Looking ahead, two more rounds of the competition will occur on April 27th at Sunset Beach in Ensenada and on July 20th at Playa El Pabellón in San Quintín. The top performers from these competitions will have the opportunity to represent Baja California at the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship in Jalisco in September.
