Guide to Marlin fishing off Cuba

Catching one of these deep-sea monsters requires trolling at speeds of six to nine knots while using heavy-duty equipment and lures, natural or live bait. June through September remain the optimal months for catching black, blue or white marlin in Cuba.

Anglers typically use flexible poles measuring five to six feet in length that carry ratings of 100 pounds or more. High-speed reels equipped with multiple breaking systems hold 300 to 600 feet of line. Constructed from metal or plastic, lures measure anywhere from seven to 15 inches in length and often resemble fish or squid. Natural bait choices commonly include ballyhoo or mackerel. Anglers might also combine lures with bait. Live bait options include small tuna species.

Fees for charter marlin fishing generally apply to groups of up to four people. Additional charges apply to each extra individual. Specialized crews man each boat that carries the necessary equipment, bait and tackle. Some also provide the required licensing.
