Amazing method of fishing. They put us on the spots the bottom fishing was a bit slow but since we were yellow tail fishing they allowed everyone an opportunity at the back of the boat and helped explain how to fish. Overall everyone caught fish to keep and throw back and was extremely fun.
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!
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.
