awesome capt. very knowledgeable! i personally own a charter company in key west and captain two of my boats personally. i may be the last person you'd want to take on a charter
Stayed on the Mama Linda houseboat at Bud n Mary's in Islamorada. It was a great time, waking up to fantastic views and enjoying it all over again in the afternoon
This is the second time in the last month I have written rented a boat from Bud N Mary’s. Timi specifically helped me on both occasions and bc of her our trip was an absolute success and I can’t thank them enough

Successful day of fishing We went on the party boat at Bud N Mary’s and had a great day of fishing. Caught lots of fish- mangrove snapper, yellowtail snapper, mutton, porgy, strawberry grouper. And one of my sons caught a shark so he was super excited about that! The captain and deck hands are all very helpful and friendly. Always right there to assist you when you need them.
Bud and Mary's is one of my favorite things about the keys. The atmosphere is great and the people are SUPER nice. What more can you ask for than a day on the water and great people? I went with the whole family, and when I say the whole family I mean the WHOLE family!!! Brothers, nieces, nephews, parents, you name it they were there and everyone had a great time. Other than a little seasickness and that's the ocean's fault! We couldn't have asked for better day together. My brother heads down regularly and I can't wait to head back and join him.
fished today on reel mccoy w/ Captn george...just awesome...top 10 days on the water and i fish ALOT! the live bait sail fishing is sooo unique and even beats drop back...much like so cal broadbill/stripey fishing you cast live baits to tailing or feeding sails..non freaken stop action with plenty of pandemonium had 3 rods going at once..the boat is a quiet smooth ride and the team just great...would fish with them anywhere/anytime!
