I was recently away in Cuba for a short Winter Break. The Fishing was really good ,we had lots of different species out on the Bahama Channel and I also had a bit of fun on the Flats with the Fly Rod .The Bonefish were of a fantastic Size and all were well over 3lbs and one into Double Figures,a few Baby Tarpon of the Rocks when it was too windy to venture out on the Boat. Out on the Boat we had Wahoo,Dorado,Snapper,Grouper,Shark,Kingfish and had a few hits on the Floss with my Fly Rod by Sailfish but unfortunately none of them stayed attached.
