FISHING IN CUBA – OCEAN KINGS
Fishing in shallow waters around mangrove islands is always exciting. We fished with fishing lures so our targeted fishes were predators. They strike hard, they grabbed and mostly destroyed our lures and was really great fun catching them. However, all of a sudden everything turns to calm and peaceful in the water. Why? Because the king comes, the king? Yes, sharks are real kings of the sea. We even managed to catch a couple of them, well, frankly, to hold them for some time…..
