In 1999 I got a Visa to visit Cuba for two days. I accompanied
somebody doing a photo shoot for bass fishing in that little Island.
Getting a visa to legally visit cuba really isn't that difficult. From
what i understand the Bush boys have done however is tie in some
currency rules that pretty much means unless you have family or a darn
good excuse you can't pay for lodging, food, or transportation.

i can't speak for the bone fishing but if the Island ever becomes
readily available to Americans, the BASS boys are going to go nuts.
