So, heading to Cuba in the spring, Likely Holguin, maybe Veradero. I'm thinking it might be nice to take a rod along and do some fishing off the beach. There are some inlets and bridges nearby as well. Not interested in doing the deep sea thing or hiring a guide, just some fishing on my own. Catch and release only. Questions:

1. Are there any licences to buy? I can't find a thing online. I have found some bulletin boards that say there are no specific seasons but that's it. Can't find any sort of regs. I do not want to get into trouble.

2. I own a 5 weight fly rod and some medium action spinning rods. The fly rod is definitely out. Anyone shore fished anywhere in the caribbean with your standard spinning rod? If so, what sort of leader, lures, line weight or type recommendations etc? Give it to me simple, I'm not even an expert angler in my home waters, nevermind Cuba.

Thanks.
