The “Expedition” is a 34′ Gillikan express powered by twin diesels. It’s a very comfortable boat with bench seating on each side of the console and a head (toilet) down stairs for the ladies. The boat was completely re done in 2017 and is ready to fish! She can handle up to 4 charter guests comfortably. Capt Wes and Capt Jeffrey both run the boat and have been at Bud n’ Mary’s the past decade. If you want a “big boat feel” on a mid size boat check us out!
Great Captain that made our day Captain Stephen Byrd is absolutely the best. He got us on fish all day and met our challenge, catching tarpon in January, and exceeded. Not only did land tarpon, Captain Stephen got us on 7 other species just to make sure we filled out our day.

Had a great time aboard the Miss Islamorada !! Super professional and friendly crew !! The captain was awesome. He explained everything in detail. He was always ready to answer a question or help you while we were anchored. The mates were the best I have ever encountered on a party boat !! Seth and Essex went far and above to make sure everyone caught fish and had a great time. So professional !! They seemed to be everywhere at once !! This boat may not have all the amenities some look for, like an air conditioned cabin and food for sale on board, but the Miss Islamorada is a serious fishing machine. Fast and stable. Leaves and arrives on time, 30 people max on the boat, which makes for an awesome mate to passenger ratio. I think there were about 20 people on my trip. Again, best mates I have seen yet. The mates provided us a variety of baits like ballyhoo, squid, and shrimp. They even hooked me up with live baits. Lots of action !! This boat also does not allow the stern to be reserved like many party boats I have been on. That is awesome. The mates split us up into 3 groups and rotated us to the stern where they had chummed the water. They gave us all spinning reels and shrimp for bait and we slayed the mangrove and yellowtail snappers !! Best part for me. So much fun. We also took turns drift fishing for yellowtail with shrimp and sinking chum balls. Crazy fun !! Everyone caught fish. The mates and captain also gladly filleted our fish and bagged them up for us. Thank you to the Captain and Crew of the Miss Islamorada. Great experience. I will return.
