For about 3 decades one name stands out for hosting premier fishing tournaments at the Cape. Bisbee's is known far and wide as the event for fishermen who want to try their luck at tight lines and a big jackpot to boot.
The brains behind these annual tournaments is Wayne and Tricia Bisbee. Not that they do it alone, as there are plenty of other people who contribute to make the Bisbee events a reality. But behind every great idea there are one or two people who guide the show, and Wayne and Tricia are a good team.
What's all the fuss about? Why is Bisbee's so talked about in the fishing world? Where there are lot of reasons, not the least of which is big jackpots. The winner of a Bisbee's Black and Blue Marlin Jackpot Tournament can go home with over $1,000,000. Not exactly chump change for a fishing trip.
Fishermen from all across the United States head to Cabo each October to join the fun. Some of them motor their boats to Cabo themselves, some send their boats down with a captain and crew. And those who don't own boats either find somebody who does, or reserve a charter boat just for the occassion.
Planning ahead is an important part of the Bisbee's event. In addition to signing up with the Bisbee's office in Costa Mesa, California, it's important to reserve hotel and air accommodations to Cabo before the town books up.
Fall is the perfect time to visit Cabo and do the Bisbee's. The weather is great, the water is warm and the fish are hungry. What else could a fisherman ask for? Oh yes, and the cervesa is cold and the tequila is warm.
The good folks at Bisbees also offer other fishing tournaments who those who can't make the big Cabo event, or for those who can't seem to get enought fishing in. In addition to the Bisbee's Black and Blue Marlin Jackpot Tournament, the folks at Bisbee's offer the Los Cabos Offshore Circuit Tournament, the East Cape Offhshore Tournament and the La Paz Offshore Tournament.
