New engines for 2022. Quiet and low emissions!
Join them aboard their 41’ custom Hatteras offshore sport fishing boat, originally built in 1968. She’s been fully refitted in 2017, so you can fish from a fusion of time-tested strength and modern comforts. A flybridge, fighting chairs, livewell, outriggers, and advanced navigation and fishfinding systems are all present on board, to make sure that you have every advantage possible when going after that dream catch.
Captain James Byrd will be your guide and instructor on this charter. Whether you’re a first-time angler or a seasoned sea wolf, he can accommodate you and your fishing taste. You can choose from a large variety of fish species to go after, ranging from Bluefish, Tilefish, Black Seabass, Grouper, and such, all the way to the Blue Marlin, Yellowfin, and Bluefin Tuna (depending on the time of year), Shark, Mackerel and more!
The charter will provide you with all the necessary equipment for a range of different fishing techniques, like bottom fishing, trolling, drift fishing, jigging with light and heavy tackle, as well as kite fishing for the more adventurous. The captain and first mate will work hard to ensure your fishing adventure with Hitman Sportfishing is a pleasant and memorable experience, so gratuity is appreciated.

Half Day Trip (PM)
We made a late decision to go fishing despite the heat, and we are so happy we did. Captain James and Nick kept us on fish throughout most of our trip and made the entire afternoon incredibly enjoyable. We caught a nice selection of blues, mackerel and bonymacs. The whole operation was smooth, easy and a blast. I highly recommend and am looking forward to booking for next season!

Half Day Trip (10:30AM)
It was a warm windy morning with not much biting, but Captian James and FM Jerod were awesome. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and so helpful. We only caught a few fish, not bad considering the conditions, but we would book with these guys again.

Hitman sport fishing gave us a wonderful fishing experience. Capt James and Nick worked hard to make sure we had the best trip of our summer. Plenty of fun and fish.
