Simply returned from an excellent journey to Cayo Paredon, Cuba. I took a trip with 8 anglers and 5 non anglers. Flight from Miami to Camaguey is a simple 90 minutes and after that 2 1/2 hour bus trip to our resort for the week. We were right away fulfilled by our fishing supervisor Yoel with cold mojitos. We then talked about tides, weather condition and guide tasks for the week.
The marina is a 10 minute trip from the hotel and each early morning an electrical golf automobile zipped us out there. The location is safe and secure and manned 24 hr a day, so we had the ability to leave all our take on there every day and not carry it backward and forward.
Among the piece de resistances that lead me to pick Paredon was the marketed various difficult wadable flats. Right off the bat this was plainly real and every day anglers invest in between 1/3 to 1/2 the day wading if so wanted. The bonefish here abound and variety from little dinks to 8– 10 pound beasts.
Targeting them while strolling is among my preferred methods to fish. One emphasize for me was sharing the skiff with my other half Tanya for the very first time and enjoying her land 2 bonefish. Another was landing a great bone on a fly I connected with store mascot Jasper’s fur.
A lot of folks had at least a couple chance ats license however our group landed just 1 for the week. There were a couple of resident tarpon around this time of year and our group landed 3 in the 20 # class. I hooked 3 myself consisting of one with an authorization crab on 16 # test however they all spit the hook.
Another cool feature of this location is the alternative to target triggerfish. We saw them most days and I had one consume 3 times however did not attach. Our East Coast pal Chris landed this remarkable specimen.
Long time store consumers Mark and David ended up being the suppliers as they captured numerous snappers that the guides fried up for us to supplement
our rice and bean diet plan. The guides likewise prepared spiny lobsters for us on 2 events which is constantly a reward.
There are great deals of barracudas and jacks around so even in difficult weather condition there is constantly something to do. My friend Rio organized to dive on his own for 5 days and on one dive he stated it was the very best of his life. He has actually done
scuba all over the world so that was cool to hear.
Cubans are a few of the friendliest folks we have actually ever come across. They will do whatever they can to make your day more vibrant. They were all excited to talk with us and practice their English. The capability to remain favorable versus all chances is amazing as getting back at fundamental products is really tough.
Every present we brought for the residents was considerably valued. Beginning strategies to return Fall 2026 or Spring 2027 so let me understand if you have any interest in signing up with the next journey.
