Congrats to Dave Pryce

The Permit, Bonefish, and Tarpon were caught May 24 at Cayo Largo, Cuba.
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

Travellers To Cuba Should Know........
Just a quick heads up to those of you travelling to go fishing in Cuba in the next while....
Effective May 1, 2010, legislation passed in early March come into law in Cuba stating that
all foreign visitors entering Cuba must possess valid Travel Medical Insurance.
Should you not have it you must purchase it from the Cubans and they'll likely be expensive.
Nobody completely understands the possibilities of Capitalism like a Communist!
You MUST present certificate showing you have medical insurance at immigration/customs when
entering the country.
Approved insurance carriers are RBC Insurance, Medjet, CIBC Insurance (that we know of right now)
RBC Insurance is probably the cheapest at around $60 for a week.
MAKE SURE YOU TAKE CERTIFICATE SHOWING YOU HAVE THE INSURANCE!
Didn't want anyone getting caught without it!!! Have fun when you go!

Cuba Flats Fishing for $2590
Ana Maria Lodge (Cuba) Fly Fishing Vacation
Country Pleasures and Avalon are proud to present their 8th location for all their clients who prefer Cuba and its culture for a unique fishing holiday.
For the first time we are able to offer a great fishery at a very low price, so everyone can enjoy and experience this beautiful country. This is the best offering for a lower price venue in Cuba!!!
Fishermen can fish the flats of Southern Cuba
for as little as $ 2590 USD.
The perfect destination for anglers looking for adventure
South Ana Maria is the eighth Avalon destination. We plan to offer this new endeavour as a fishing alternative for those looking to broaden their angling horizons, while discovering a completely unpressured natural marine environment for salt water fish.
The area is completely untouched and exclusively maintained and chartered by Avalon. Species found in this area are: tarpon, bonefish, permit, snook, jack crevalle, snapper, large and aggressive barracuda as well as several other powerful species. Avalon’s goal is to offer another destination to unexplored, virgin waters, as we once did in other areas now well known and protected in Jardines de la Reina. In recent seasons we have visited these waters with guides and clients, with spectacular reviews. The results have been so positive that we are proud to spread the word on how unique and abundant this marine ecosystem is. The rich flora and fauna in this area also make it perfect for diving, as the waters are so clear and the species inhabiting the area, so abundant.
The fishing method we will use at this new location is the same as we are applying in Cayo Largo, with a rotation of the fishing areas, so that each skiff has as an assigned daily area to fish. Dolphins Skiffs with Yamaha 4 stroke 60 HP motors will be used to fish the area, which ensures Avalon’s high standard of quality and security. These same standards are applied throughout Avalon equipment found at all our destinations. The quality of food and service offered will be identical to those in Avalon’s other programs in Jardines de la Reina. The menu will be abundant with fresh fish, seafood, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Meat and vegetarian dishes are also available on request. A great deal of priority will be placed on the quality of meals served on board and the attentive service will be second to none.
This program is completely independent from the other Avalon trips to Jardines de la Reina, in the sense that anglers will arrive at Jucaro Port, where they will board the yacht, for a transfer to the first fishing area. The program can be booked for 4 to 8 anglers in exclusivity. Those staying aboard the yacht will be in 5 double rooms, all with air conditioning and private bathrooms. The guides, crew and wait staff have a separate sleeping area aboard and will be at guest’s beck and call throughout the week. Excellent food and service along with long days on the water in a scarcely explored marine eco system, is what this new and exciting trip is all about!
Ana Maria Fishing
Avalon is offering their 16 years of experience in Cuba with professional guides, fully equipped Dolphin skiffs and best of all: a unique and virgin spot to fish for Bonefish, Tarpon, Snook, Jack Crevalle and other reef fish such as Cuberas, Mutton Snapper, and Barracuda.
The Ana Maria Gulf area will offer you excellent Baby Tarpon opportunities, great Bonefishing, and Permit shots on frequent occasions. In addition to these species you will find Cubera and Mutton Snapper, good populations of Snook, as well as Barracuda.
How to get there
Anglers can fly into Cayo Coco, Cuba on direct flights from Canada. A short taxi ride to Jucaro where you will board the Caballones for six days of fishing

TARPON BREAK-HOW ABOUT TAILING BONEFISH?
Little group of good sized Bonefish over the grass. Shallow enough their backs are out of the water most of the time. Check out the tail about halfway through. Ends with a Bang!!
