Cuba Fly Fishing Lodges

For many, a fishing trip to Cuba is very high on the “angling bucket list” for life – and travel to Cuba with Yellow Dog is LEGAL. The fishing can be excellent and is relatively untouched and diverse. That said, a trip to Cuba is also about visiting the country and seeing a destination that in many ways has not really changed much since the late 1950s. The fishing can be exciting and productive, but a visit to Havana and some of the more rural areas of the island to experience the sights, the sounds, the people, the great old cars, the music, and the overall culture that Cuba has to offer is what makes these trips special!
