    Why this event matters

    Bisbee's positions Black & Blue as the Super Bowl of Fishing, with giant marlin, high-stakes categories and a Cabo marina atmosphere that turns weigh station afternoons into a spectator event.

    Venue, arrival and local planning

    The official event hub is Puerto Paraiso and the marina. Visitors should focus on fishing-day weigh station windows. The Saturday awards celebration at The Place at Cabo is for teams and access pass holders; additional passes can be purchased at the event.

    • Base near the marina, downtown Cabo or Medano for the easiest access.
    • Use October 21 to 23 afternoons for weigh station viewing.
    • Expect heavy marina demand throughout Black & Blue week.
