Whether you are a seasoned veteran angler, coming back for your umpteenth Florida Keys guided charter fishing vacation or a novice coming to give flats fishing a try for the first time, Captain Buddy Lapointe is the guy you want for your guide on the Marathon flats. He’s got over 25 years experience In taking anglers such as yourself out for a day on the flats and bringing them back with memories to last a lifetime.
Charters with Captain Buddy can be half day or full day and he is equally at home guiding fly fishermen and light tackle spinner anglers. When you charter with Captain Buddy, all your fishing gear, tackle, licenses and bait are covered, but your food and beverages are not. There will be plenty of warm sunshine and excitement out there, so be sure you cover the basics with lunch and beverages.
Captain Buddy’s boat, like most flats fishing skiffs is a very specialized craft with a very shallow, flat hull outfitted with a poling platform over the outboard from which Captain buddy poles the boat into the shallow waters in search of the fish. From his elevated position, he will spot the activity that indicates the presence of fish and direct the anglers where to place their casts. From that point on, it’s up to you to land the fish that will probably give you the fight of your life.
So, when you think about fishing the flats of the Marathon back country in the central Florida Keys on your next guided charter fishing holiday, make sure to make Captain Buddy part of your plans.
