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!
This is an awesome Marina to fish out of. Lots of charter boats available with a restaurant that opens early for breakfast and will pack you a lunch to take on your trip. Ample fishing gear and bait with a awesome atmosphere. If you're looking to fish out of a great Marina you cannot go wrong with Bud and Mary's
We just got back from a day on the Miss Islamorada, it was a blast!!! The captain and mate were awesome! They went out of their way to make sure we were all having a great time. Being the only woman on the boat I was a little worried but they made me feel so comfortable they even helped me get the biggest fish on the boat!!! I can't wait to go back. I just wanted to add I wasn't at the back of the boat and still caught the biggest fish!!!
