I'm still going to give Bud & Mary's party boat five stars because I love the marina, the captain and the party boat itself 100% but for the first time in 7 to 8 years that I have been going on this boat I was a little disappointed with the crew. Ive never felt like they played favorites until yesterday. There was a particular customer that is also a regular and he and his family we're treated like royalty and others not so much. One of the other guest from out of town and I had a long conversation about it. It was definitely clear to all the other guest as well. I won't stop going on that boat because as I said I really like captain and love Bud n Mary's. My son worked in the service industry for years so I believe in tipping but I'll tip according to the way I'm treated as well.

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.

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!!!
