Great stop for food, bait, fishing gear and charters My husband and I visited Bud and Mary's to grab some bait for our 5th anniversary fishing day trip the beginning of the month. Super friendly and happy people, we're very helpful to point out a nice spot to go fishing, and supplied us with great shrimp bait. Food smelled great but it was early so we plan to come back and try it. The property was super clean, including the dock. There were a lot of charters out that morning and a few visitors milling around. They have a small school of tarpon and nurse sharks and some pelicans hanging around wait for scraps, and you can purchase food to feed them. Really want to jump on a charter next time we come down! They also have a dive shop that had a huge selection of gear, but was closed for lunch while we were there. Great place, we will be back.

Review for "Miss Islamorada" fishing charter: Captain and the mates worked very hard to put us on fish. Moved around a few times. Full charter and everyone had a chance to fish in the back for yellowtail- played no favorites. They may have read prior reviews; they worked really hard to make sure everyone was happy. Would definitely go again.
