Buy all my bait, fuel and lunch here. Great staff and friendly owners.

Captain Bill Bassett at Bud and Mary’s My husband and I are boat owners and fish out of OCNJ for the past 30+ years. We came to Islamorada to fish a full day back country through the Everglades for a new experience; catch some fish new to us and see some cool wildlife. Friends referred us to Bud and Mary’s and after chatting with us for a bit, Chrissy paired us with Capt Bill Bassett saying that it would be a great fit, and she was right. Capt Bill is a master of his craft, knows where to fish, how to catch and cater to his clients. We caught snook, bonefish, sea trout, a bunch of jacks and saw some crocs 😀. He’s also an entertaining conversationalist, the 8 hour trip passed in a blink. What a fantastic experience, thanks so much Captain Bill and Bud & Mary’s Marina!

Went out on the party boat. Captain and mate worked their butts off to keep our hooks baited and in the water. We caught a ton of yellowtails. I've been on about 10 party boat trips and this one used more bait and chum than any I've seen. Great job and very friendly captain and mate! Would definitely go again
