50 species in Islamorada!

 We currently have the senior editor for Field & Stream magazine fishing with us at Bud N' Mary's.  He is trying to catch 50 different species for his 50th birthday while here for a few days.  Today he fished with Capt. Jim Willcox and I know they caught some different snappers, groupers, houndfish, pork fish, and other various things.  They also got some good shots for the magazine.  I'll be posting more info as we get some photos and the article is published!

Catch 22 Great Swordfish Day - 6/11/08

The Stanczyk & Company crew had a great day swordfishing on the Catch 22.  They caught 4 swords in the 80 - 150 lb range during the day!  Nice Job!  More pics to come, but here is one Richard got of one jumping.  Neat!

Sparrow's Nest Party!

We had a great time Saturday night (5/31/08) at The Sparrow's Nest!  It was our friend Micah Gardners birthday party, and he put on a great show for us!  Sparrow and the crew had recently redeveloped the part of the property behind our barn.  He moved his workshop inside and set up seating and cooking facilities, as well as a small stage for music performers and such!  Our night watchmen Mike Jolin had his art on display and his partner Suzanne was there to cook.  We also had our friend Diane from Outback Steakhouse as our bartender.  Micah Gardner performed with other local musicians Luke Ptomey and Alex (?).  Also Chris Miller and Jimmy Lozar from The Marlin 2 Revue did some songs!  The food was great and all in all about 50 people showed up in and out.  Here's some pictures of the setup and stage!
