There is a no fishing zone in Culebra (PR DNER Reserve) that includes the canal between Luis Pena and Tamarindo, Carlos Rosario, and waters north of Luis Pena. No fishing is allowed in the water or from the shoreline in the Reserve (including east shoreline of Luis Pena) and the shorelines are posted. Marker bouys showing the reserve boundaries in the water should be in place by the time you get here, they are being replaced very soon.
Also, DNER recently revised the PR Fishing Law and fishing licenses are now required. It is receiving a lot of protest from commercial fishermen and the public right now. Please check with local authorities when you get to Culebra as to the law's status and possible application to your activities, as things can change. The Fisherman's Association and also Mini Mas Hardware store and Marine Center can give you the latest info. They are located at gas dock across the canal from Mamacita's.
Thanks for asking.
