LOBSTER CHARTERS!

(SORRY NO MINI SEASON DAYS AVAILABLE)

With Capt. Sara Stanczyk on the 25 foot Shallow Sport X3

Email Sara to book a charter at floridakeysecotour@gmail.com 

$1200 for a 4 hour trip for up to 4 passengers

Gloves, nets, lobster license included.  You must bring your own snorkel gear that fits correctly and is comfortable. 

August is the best month to catch lobster but we still do a few trips into September it just starts to slow down some then.  You must be comfortable snorkeling and holding your breath to dive down 10-15 feet deep on average to catch them.  This is not a good activity for small children or people who have never snorkeled before.

STONE CRAB CHARTERS

Email Sara at floridakeysecotour@gmail.com to book a charter

$700 for a 2-3 hour charters depending on weather conditions to go pull the traps, up to 4 people.

Stone crab season is October 15th through May 1st every year.  Learn how to pull and bait crab traps and harvest stone crab claws.  You get to keep the claws to eat!   This is a fun trip for kids and families, very hands on and messy with the fish scraps we use to bait the traps.

5 star ratingWe had a great day fishing on the Miss Islamorada - Captain TJ and mates Ben and Jude were awesome with having everything ready and assisting with the fishing. Was there with my 11 year old and they were great with them. We caught a bunch of fish and it was a memorable day.

5 star ratingFabulous Captain and Sportfishing Facility Captain Nick Stanczyk is an absolutely fabulous guide and captain. He knew where to fish which put onto a giant fish very quickly. Then he never took his eyes off the line and kept the boat properly placed for the duration of an 8 hour plus fight. In the end, we landed a record size swordfish of over 757 pounds. As experienced captains ourselves we cannot say enough positive things about Capt. Nick, his boat or and his crew. In addition, Bud n Mary’s knows how to treat fisherman of all levels. The Galley Girls Cafe located at Bud n Mary’s puts together great early am breakfast in plenty of time to make the boat departures and their lunch boxes are excellent as well. If you are looking for great day trips or a trip of a lifetime Capt. Nick Stanczyk and Bud n Mary’s is the place to go.
