Deep-sea fishing anglers from around the world will gather in Cabo San Lucas next month for Bisbee’s Black & Blue Tournament in Mexico, where it has taken place for more than 30 years.
Started in 1981 by Bob Bisbee, the Black & Blue Marlin Tournament has grown from six teams with a purse of $10,000 to more than 150 teams with millions of dollars on the line.
In 2006, the Black & Blue had its biggest overall cash payout of $4.16 million. This was, and remains, the largest payout in sport fishing history.
Two tournaments are scheduled:
Los Cabos Offsore Charity Tournament on Friday, October 18th – Sunday, October 20th (with two fishing days)
Black & Blue Marlin Tournament on Tuesday, October 22nd – Saturday, October 26th (with three fishing days)
Each tournament has its own personality with the Los Cabos Offshore, nicknamed “Little Bisbee’s” – a social event full of camaraderie where friends can meet, swap stories and get in a couple days of fishing before the “Big Show”.
