Fuel

Bud n’ Mary’s Fishing Marina has fueling capability* for vessels with a maximum draft of 4.5 feet. We have diesel as well as gasoline (ethanol free marine grade).

For gasoline powered vessels under 30 foot in length please access the fuel dock located in front of the tackle shop office (not the pumps located on the end of the guide boat dock with lots of skiffs in boat lifts).

For vessels over 30 foot in length, or diesel powered vessels, please access the pumps located at the end of the guide boat dock (with lots of skiffs in boat lifts).

Please check in the tackle shop before you attempt fueling, we do require holding a credit card before you can start pumping.

*Our employees do not fuel vessels due to insurance reasons, you must pump your own fuel.

Fishing Reports

5 star ratingAmazing method of fishing. They put us on the spots the bottom fishing was a bit slow but since we were yellow tail fishing they allowed everyone an opportunity at the back of the boat and helped explain how to fish. Overall everyone caught fish to keep and throw back and was extremely fun.

5 star ratingEpic bucket list fishing trip! Went fishing on the Broad Minded with Capt Mike Varney. There are no words to describe how excellent the day was!

2 keeper swords
3 dolphin
2 queen snapper
Several small, but tasty, tuna
And a couple of good smokers

Capt Mike is fantastic- he knows the fishing spots, and he’s very pleasant. All you have to do is listen to him and follow instructions and you will have an amazing day.

We were targeting Swords and made sure that we booked the trip on the appropriate days for prime swordfishing. If your target is a swordfish, please do your homework.

Highly highly recommend this boat and this Capt.!
