computerguytl Posted July 13, 2009 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2009 I want to go fishing when I'm here but don't have time to charter a boat. Is there a place close to the beach to rent a fishing pole? I read somewhere else a while back that it was frowned upon from the locals but it is perfectly legal to do. Let me know some details. I'm a good ole boy from KY that likes his fishing.

I read somewhere else a while back that it was frowned upon from the locals but it is perfectly legal to do. Let me know some details. I'm a good ole boy from KY that likes his fishing. Locals do it all the time and I don’t know of anyone who would be upset. The only problem is renting a pole. Bring a light tackle spinning rod & reel combo with some shinny spoons (about size you would use for black bass). There are two places close to town: Playa Caletita (south) and Playa Las Casitas (north). These are rocky shoreline, but not in the marine park and no piers close by, so you won’t have any problems. No fishing license is required to fish from shore anywhere in Mexico, only on boats. Do NOT fish south of Puerta Maya Cruise Terminal; from there around the south end of the island is inside the protected marine park and there it is illegal.

FishermanJim Posted July 14, 2009 #4 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I was responding strictly about Cozumel, Mexico. I have no knowledge of Gran Cayman fishing laws nor what locals like or dislike. In Cozumel, this is not a problem and perfectly legal if you follow the information I submitted above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
