Peterjay 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2012 Americans aren't specifically prohibited from traveling to Cuba, but as far as I know, it's still illegal to spend any money there under the Trading With the Enemy Act. Most Americans who visit Cuba do so illegally, and would face heavy fines if caught. I read an article by Jeffrey Cardenas in Fly Rod & Reel a few years ago - he's of Cuban descent and wanted to visit the country and do a little fishing there. His report was anything but encouraging, in fact it was downright dismal. Subsistence fishing had pretty well hammered gamefish populations, and in some cases, had wiped them out.

They run lots of trips, or can hook you up with a guide. Andrew Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
