sorry Markus,
took pictures but not with digital>>if you e mail me your address I;ll send you a copy in the mail*cowfish are a very blunt squared off fish that average
2 or3 lbs , fight well and are found in shallow water so you don't need a
boat
Cuba was great and the people some of the most gracious I;ve
come across in the carribbean<<
the US embargo hurts but they make do and the streets are full
of well preserved and renovated 1950 etc dodges and chevs!
