Fishing Reports

5 star ratingCaptain 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!

5 star ratingI used Bud N Marry's marina to get on the Miss Islamorada Charter to do some reef fishing recently. It was a rainy day when we got there. I was excited we were still going to departure and be all day out. The rain shortly stopped. The ocean was calm and the fish were rambunctious. Captain Ben was true gentleman, so courteous, so nice and extremely caring. He was making sure that everyone hooked at least one good sized fish for dinner. Even though he is the captain he worked his tail off, even making bait ball for those of us in the back of the boat catching snappers.He took us to a great spot, even encountered some bull sharks.

Bring your own drinks and snack, none of it its provided for you. You will have great fun and you will go home with a bucket or cooler of fish. They provided an array of bait and they will help you every step of the way. The bait doesn't promise that you will catch fish but at least they will die trying for you. Great experience, gorgeous day to be out, turquoise waters and alligator reef beautiful as always. Nice boat, stable and smooth ride to the reef and back.

5 star rating5 stars to employees of Galley Girls cafe. Sweet ladies in the cafe. Good size breakfast plate.

5 stars to the employees in the office who listened to our needs and set us up with a smaller boat for just the two of us. He didn't try to upsell us to a bigger boat we didn't need.

50 gold stars to Jim Hendrix on the Dauntless!! Great captain, patient with me who is a complete novice. He knows his stuff: boat, fish, the ocean. Wouldn't hesitate going back.
