Beach fishing

[computerguytl]

I want to go fishing when I'm here but don't have time to charter a boat.

Is there a place close to the beach to rent a fishing pole?

 

I read somewhere else a while back that it was frowned upon from the locals but it is perfectly legal to do.

 

Let me know some details.

I'm a good ole boy from KY that likes his fishing.

It is perfectly legal to fish from shore if you are:

1. a Caymanian, or
   
2. in Cayman on a tourist visa.
   

Non-Caymaninans living in Cayman on a work visa cannot fish from shore without purchasing a rather expensive fishing license. Oddly, if that same non-Caymanian is fishing from a boat then no fishing license is needed.

 

I have never found a place to rent fishing poles. There are a few of our Caymanian good ol' boys who could arrange everything for you and take you bonefishing from shore. This is typically fishing for Tarpon - good for the fight but no good to eat.
