The International Sailfish Tournament, the oldest, most traditional event in Puerto Vallarta, has officially begun.

At an animated press conference held at the Club de Pesca de Puerto Vallarta, its president, Sr. Alberto Sánchez Cárdenas, accompanied by municipal authorities, sponsors and guests, announced the official start of the 48th International Sailfish Tournament.

During the conference, they also announced the prizes for the winners in different species categories, which you can check out at the tournament’s web site: http://www.fishvallarta.com They stressed that those prizes would be awarded regardless of the number of participants, a number still unknown at this time, but expected to exceed last year’s.

We were also told that there was a possibility that the participants may receive their permits early from the appropriate authorities and everyone was urged to start the paperwork as early as possible. The cost for an individual permit is $400. Pesos, valid for one year.

During the conference, we found out that on this occasion, no craft will set out before the flag raising ceremony and the arrival site for everyone will be in front of the Flamingos Vallarta Hotel in Marina Vallarta.

In answer to one of the questions posed by a member of the media, Engineer Michel emphasized the fact that without doubt, the Bay of Banderas and surrounding areas are the very best place for sport fishing in all of Mexico today. Consequently, this tournament is sure to be filled with emotion, and new world records are sure to be set.

Everything’s ready! As it has done for the last 48 years, the oldest social sports event will begin next Thursday, November 20th, and everyone’s invited! Good luck and congratulations to the Club de Pesca that -for many generations- has enabled us to enjoy what has become known as the best fishing tournament in Mexico, organized by the Mexicans of Vallarta.


Todo Listo!....

El Torneo Internacional de Pesca de Pez Vela, el evento de más tradición en Puerto Vallarta, oficialmente arranca.

En animada rueda de prensa celebrada en las instalaciones del Club de Pesca de Puerto Vallarta, su presidente el Sr. Alberto Sánchez Cárdenas acompañado de autoridades municipales, patrocinadores e invitados, anuncio a la comunidad que oficialmente arranca el 48 Torneo Internacional de Pesca de Pez Vela.

Durante la reunión se confirmo cuales serán los premios por las capturas de las diferentes especies, mismos que se pueden conocer en el sitio web del torneo: http://www.fishvallarta.com Se hizo la aclaración de que dichos premios serán entregados independientemente del número de participantes, que por cierto aun no se tiene un dato aproximado de cuantos serán, y se confía en sobrepasar el número del año pasado.

Se aprovecho la ocasión parta notificar que para todos los participantes pescadores, existe la disponibilidad para que las autoridades correspondientes, les expidan los permisos con anticipación. Se informo que el costo por permiso individual es de cuatrocientos pesos, mismo que es vigente por un año y se hizo la invitación para que todos lo tramiten con anticipación.

Durante la conferencia también se comunicó que en esta ocasión, ninguna embarcación saldrán antes de los honores a la bandera, y que la llegada para todos será frente al hotel Flamingos Vallarta en Marina Vallarta.

Al responder a una de las preguntas elaboradas por uno de los medios informativos, el Ing. Michel hizo énfasis en que sin lugar a dudas, la zona de Bahía de Banderas y sus alrededores, son actualmente la mejor área para la pesca deportiva en todo México, y por ello se asegura que este torneo estará lleno de emociones, y de seguro se implementará algún nuevo record mundial.

Todo esta listo!.... como siempre desde hace cuarenta y ocho años, el evento social, cultural y deportivo más antiguo de Puerto Vallarta arrancará el próximo día jueves 20 de noviembre, y todos estamos invitados. En hora buena y muchas felicidades al Club de Pesca por que a través de varias generaciones nos ha hecho posible de disfrutar de lo que se reconoce como el mejor torneo de pesca de México organizado por mexicanos vallartenses.
