Capt. Buddy has tremendous knowledge of all the fish species that we caught.  He also taught our teens different techniques of casting.  We fished in the bay to start so we could get some fish for dinner, then we moved closer to the bridge to fish for tarpon, jacks and possibly some grouper.  I highly recommend him due to his knowledge, patience and laid back personality.  He’s the “grandfather” of fishing in marathon.

Captain Buddy put us on some great fish and delivered an amazing experience. We highly recommend Capt Buddy and can’t wait to come back. This trip not only had plenty of action but was also educational. Capt buddy taught us to rig a texas rig, why we should avoid the Arkansas rig, “jig jig drop retreve”, and most importantly the three step process. Dont pass up a trip with Capt buddy if you get the chance.

Very cordial guide . Worked really hard. Many years of experience . Enjoyed the trip

Capt. Buddy was fantastic!  He put us right on the fish.  I think we caught 7 different varieties which included an amazing tarpon!  He was kind and patient and helped us know exactly what to do and how to fish.  Highly recommend him!

There’s nobody in the Keys to spend a day on the water than Capt Buddy. He is extremely personable, patient, and knowledgeable. My entire family caught a variety of fish and we would recommend him to anyone looking to spend a day fishing.
