Organizers anticipate a strong turnout, reminiscent of last year’s event which attracted nearly 150 anglers from across the region, including Southern California.
This competition is part of the official lineup organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association, under the support of Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration. This year, the tournament is hosted by the TJ Fishing Club, with key representatives Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno leading the way.
As the first of three qualifying beach fishing tournaments, this event kicks off at 5:00 AM with registration, followed by the official start of fishing at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in session will conclude at 1:00 PM. Participants who join the line by this time will be able to compete.
The day concludes with prize awards in several categories such as children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species. Attendees can also look forward to raffles and enjoying local fish delicacies.
For those eager to participate, information regarding registration, costs, rules, and prizes is available by calling 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or by emailing tjfishingclub@gmail.com. Additional details can also be found on the TJ Fishing Club website.

Looking forward, the subsequent two rounds of the state competition will be hosted by Club Pura Vida on April 27th at Sunset Beach in Ensenada, and by Pioleros del Valle de San Quintín on July 20th at Playa El Pabellón in San Quintín. Successful anglers from these tournaments will earn the opportunity to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, scheduled for September 19-20 in Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco.
