Prepare for the Excitement of the “El Bebé” Fishing Tournament in Rosarito This March 30th
Rosarito’s “Playa El Bebé” is set to host the first round of Baja California’s state fishing competition on Sunday, March 30th. This event is expected to attract a large number of participants, following last year’s turnout of nearly 150 anglers from across the state and Southern California.
Organized by the Baja California Fishing Clubs Association and supported by Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda’s administration, this tournament is spearheaded by the TJ Fishing Club, represented by Nemesio Salazar Vázquez and Omar Reyes Moreno. It marks the first of three selective beach fishing tournaments where participants can qualify for the State Championship.
Participants can register for the event starting at 5:00 AM, with the official fishing commencing at 7:00 AM. The weigh-in will conclude at 1:00 PM. Competitors waiting in line by this time will still be allowed to weigh their catch.
There will be various prize categories, including children’s, women’s, mojarra, and other species, alongside raffles and food made with local fish. Those interested in joining can find details on registration, costs, rules, and prizes by contacting 664 493 6014 or 664 339 9173, or via email at tjfishingclub@gmail.com. More information is also available on their official website.
Victor Hugo Méndez, head of Sport Fishing at SEPESCA BC, has extended financial support to the organizers for event expenses. Prospective competitors have the option to 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 next two 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. The top anglers from these events will earn the opportunity to represent Baja California in the VI National Beach Sport Fishing Championship, taking place on September 19-20 at Playa Manzanilla, Jalisco.
