Catch 22

The Catch 22 is the flagship of Bud N’ Mary’s fleet. Custom designed by Craig Blackwell, this is the ultimate Sportfisherman! It is a 54′ vessel powered by twin 800HP M.A.N Engines. She is fast and comfortable, with a large cockpit for all the fishing space you will need. The interior is plush with A/C and all the comforts of home. The Catch 22 is captained by Scott Stanczyk. He has a 25 year history at Bud N’ Mary’s, fishing 250 days a year. During this time he has helped many captains who presently operate out of the marina today. Scott has fished and placed in almost every tournament held in Islamorada, and has appeared in numerous TV shows. He has also been subject to many fishing articles by outdoor writers who have fished in Islamorada in the past 1/4 century!

Took some friends from out of town on the Miss Islamorada party fishing boat at Budnmarys. When ever I come down to the Keys I always stay at Budnmarys they have the best service as well the cutest houseboats facing the ocean, clean facilities, and great customer service. Oh and their cafe has by far the best large homemade buttermilk biscuit breakfast sandwiches, plus they make a great sub for you to take on the boat with you. Oh and for you cat lovers out there be sure to swing by the office to meet Mary the friendly dockside cat. Well back to the fishing, I had some friends from Utah come down and they never fished the Atlantic before. This was my first time using them and definitely not the last. We caught a lot of yellowtail snapper along with my first keeper size mutton snapper. Between the wittiness of the Captain and Brad/Phillip (mates) assisting us every step of the way. Made our fishing that much better and easier. I will be back soon, heck maybe next week for my birthday.

Captain John was an incredible guide!! My husband and I are experienced boaters, he ( husband) an experienced angler. Within the 1st few mins. of meeting Captn John we knew we were in trusting & experienced hands. John took his time with me ( not experienced angler) & taught me step by step & within mins it was “ fish on!”. He sought out the good spots to catch fish, and catch we did! John is a very
experienced guide. We highly recommend him for your fishing fun in the keys!

We went out on the party fishing boat and had a wonderful time. The trip lasted from 9.30-4.00 and we stopped at different sites. The captain and his crew worked very hard to make sure that all the guests were able to catch as many fish as possible. They were very friendly and knowledgeable. The 3 of us caught about 20 fish. I would strongly recommend this company for anybody who wants a fun day and not spend too much money ($95 per person).
