Fishing in Cabo: Black & Blue Tournament

For over thirty years the Bisbee’s Black & Blue Fishing Tournaments have been held in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The first fishing tournament started in 1981, which was started by Bob Bisbee. The first tournament had only six teams and the teams were all trying to win a cash prize of $10,000. Today, there are more than 150 teams competing to win millions of dollars.
