Cayo Largo
On the south west coast in the Canarreos archipelago, Cayo Largo offers consistently good fly fishing with the highest number of grand slams anywhere in the Caribbean. Aside from the excellent bonefish and permit available There are tarpon ever present found primarily in the mangroves or reef ranging from 15 to 30lb. Traditionally the migratory tarpon arrive from April to August and tarpon over 100lb have been landed.
