A Newly released book about Bud n' Mary's MarinaThe newest book about Keys fishing, Bud n' Mary's Marina, Islamorada, Florida, was just released by author Patrick Mansell. Bud n' Mary's Marina is at the center of the universe in what has been named "The Sportfishing Capitol of the World." Interviews with guides, anglers, sports writers, and other saltwater fishing enthusiasts chronicle the exploits of many of sportsmen and women who have been coming to the Florida Keys for more than a century to enjoy the world-class fishing.
The fishing action in and around Islamorada is unmatched anywhere in the world. Many world record catches, both offshore and in the backcountry, have been made out of Bud n' Mary's, and the roster of guides, captains, anglers, and celebrities operating out of that marina is a Who's Who of sportfishing. This book also treats the reader to insights into the development of the Florida Keys from the time when Henry Flagler opened the area up to overland and overseas travel, and talks of some of the epic hurricanes that have gone into shaping the image of the Keys.
