  • I show you around Bud n' Mary's marina, which my family has owned for over 40 years. It's located in Islamorada, Florida Keys at mile marker 79.8. This is where I grew up at and people from all over the world come here to fish both offshore and inshore.

    I have that quote in my office but from the original sign so I take it she did not make the storm. Did not know it was from Teddy. That quote is why I bought a brand new 25 cuddy 4 years ago, no way was I going to sit there old thinking I never had that boat. The old sign was better with the corrections carved into it.

    Bud n' Mary's is a great place. I've been there many times going back to the 1970s. We fished with Capt. Perry Scuderi and had a great time. Unfortunately, not all my trips were great. Two days prior to the Scuderi trip, we fished with Capt. Rick Stanz. Capt. Stanz ignored us the entire day. Not one word of welcome. He had no bait. He gave us one word answers to questions. It was like we didn't deserve to be in his boat. I tipped him, but I shouldn't have.

My wife grew up going to the Anglers Club in Key Largo... we still visit her parents down there. Islamorada is the best!!!
