Cory Nelson, Captain at Native Son Charters

Come and visit Bud N Mary's Marina and explore the rich waters and diverse fisheries of Islamorada where you can go and fish on its flats, lakes, nearshore, reef, and backcountry as you go after some of the most prized species! Native Son Charters is here to take you on a fishing adventure you’ll want to tell everyone about!


Owner and operator, Captain Cory, has lifelong fishing experience. You can say that he has seen it all! He knows what gear and bait to use, the best fishing spots, and the fish patterns. On every trip he makes, he works hard to provide the best service to exceed his guest's expectations!


Start your adventure and hop on an 18’ long Hell’s Bay Marquesa boat specially build for Saltwater fishing. This vessel can accommodate up to 3 guests. It is equipped with a brand new 115 HP Yamaha engine and reaches a speed of 40 knots. The boat features top navigational electronics such as GPS, a live bait tank, an ice box, and a wireless trolling monitor. Spearfishing and snorkeling equipment are also available onboard.


The crew lives for the fish and they want you to experience the thrill of going after Tarpon,  Speckled Trout, Bonefish, Snook, and Spanish Mackerel. You can also catch Snapper, Redfish, and several types of Shark.


Everything you need for a successful day of fishing will be provided on this trip such as the fishing gear, bait, and licenses. The crew will even clean your catch after the trip is over. You only need to bring your sun protection and some snacks & drinks. Lastly, bring lots of positivity and enthusiasm for a more rewarding and fun day of fishing!
