Went fishing on Gimmy jimmy full day off shore caught 5 small fish all day. Was told by jimmy to talk to vic when we get back to shore so we could catch fish from dock. NOT WHAT I PAYED YOU $1300 FOR JIMMY. long story short $1300 dinner and was still hungry 👎👎
Bud and Mary's is a staple of the keys, I can't imagine ever going to Isla Morada and not stopping in. They always have large Tarpon that swim around the Marina, they are almost like puppies they will eat straight out of your hands!
I have guided here since the early 70’s
It’s home sweet home to me and my guests.
Very well managed
i went fishing with captain Johnny, and he frustrated me about my rod and reel . that I use to much drag, and not giving the fish a chance to fight. it seems to me that his giving the fish too much chance ties the mono to a one strand wire and fish for shark.. no swivel. baracuda with small ass hooks that bend out. and asked for 20$ fee for card payment.
Great staff easily to find location. Wish I knew about 70 buck all day fishing earlier.
BOO CATCH 22 -Paid for full day & they came in early & when they clean the mahi they rip the skin off & dont remove bones (quick & lazy). And skip jacks & bait fish you catch they give to there friends and i even stated i wanted them for bait & they let there friends cut the bellies from your mahi so they have more bait ! Never will fish with catch 22 again & i have been on 7 different boats out of bud & marys, numerous times, they were awesome. Catch 22 needs a new crew !
I was there as a diver with Key Dives. Used the shop and facilities at the Marina. Clean, well kept and friendly staff. Would be great if there was a cafe though!
Went on a charter with the Indigenous. This has to be the absolute best charter experience I have ever had. Caught a 30lb Almacore Jack and a 8ft Dusky Shark along with another Jack and a few blackfin. I can't recommend this marina and it's charter boats enough! One of the most professional Marinas and Captains I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
Got to feed the Tarpin. Big fish that were fun to feed. Other than that, it's full of bait and fishing tackle.
Bud and Mary's always have what you need. Add friendly staff in Marina and fuel dock and you get 5 star treatment..
Amazing time. We took a charter boat. The place was great. Everyone is friendly.
We bought bait here. Easy and close location to bridge fishing. Was a few dollars more than the gas station, but worth it not having to drive the extra miles.
Had a great snorkeling trip from this Marina. Before we ate a light lunch. I had a cheese grilled sandwich with grilled mushrooms and some lentil soup. Both were quite yummy!
Awesome motel, awesome fishing, friendly people. Great experience! My son and I went fishing for 2 days with Mike Nichols- we were both rookies- had an awesome time- Mike was great!! - Bruce Louderback
Really nice marina. Good place to book a charter or get bait and tackle. One of the guides took his time and really explained the fishing seasons on his boat and the details of his job. The tackle shop is very nicely stocked. Also one of the few places with a live bait.
