Description: Técnicas y peces del aficionado cubano (Techniques and fish of the Cuban amateur) exposes in an orderly way from the simplest fishing procedures, the cane and the Cuban yo-yo, to the rod and reel tackles regularly used by the amateurs. An exceptional chapter is dedicated to fly fishing, which counted from 2006 to 2010 with an extraordinary tournament, named Zapatafly, because it was based in the famous fishing spot of Cienaga de Zapata. Among the fish are mentioned the most charismatic in the country: Biajaca (a Cuban cichlid), Mutton snapper and others, such as Bonefish. The work offers continuity to the study of the angling in the island, initiated in 2009 with the publication of the work Pesca deportiva cubana. Historia y tradición (Sport Cuban fishing. History and tradition).
