I asked again about the licence requirements at the hotel, and some locals about licences, no one new of any requirements. Cuba is kind of set back in time for that sort of stuff.
We did do a bit of shore fishing at the hotel and on the snorkel trip using some cooked shrimp and bits of fish from dinner but unfortunately only took some spare line and hooks to hand out as tips to the guide for the charter we never went on LOL (they don't get imported products so they appreciate stuff over money). Cuba is just off the coast of Florida so any shore fishing techniques you use there should work in Cuba.
If I go again I would definitely take my travel rod and gear to do some surf fishing.
Good luck. M.
seen locals fishing with hand lines all over while driving to resort in varadaro
Hey Aaron, my first place to look is fishing charters. Time is of the essence and the locals should be able to put you on fish. I would imagine the charters would have you setup with license of needed and gear. Tight lines

I fish Cuba regularly, and there is no license needed to fish in the ocean there. Most "guides" that you will go with have no equipment, so you must bring your own. I take a 9' rod tube with 6-8 rods in it, and a bag of gear and reels each time I go. We stay in Cayo Coco, and fish tarpon, bonefish, permit, barracuda, snapper, grouper and shark. Also catch the odd Mahi Mahi while trolling in blue water. But, we have guides that work for a company there that we use every time we go. My good buddy is heading down in two weeks to go for the third time this year. Big bonefish in Cuba, and the fishing for other stuff is pretty great too, if you know who to hook up with.
That is the best time to begin training a wife. Show who wo lays down the rules.
