Join Heavy Hitter and score a home run with Captain George Smith, aboard his 37' Bertram sportfisher built for serious fishing.Once you hit the open waters, you'll be pleasantly surprised with the classic Bertram ride. Cape May, NJ is perhaps one of the most underrated fishing destinations in the US and provides some of the best action for anglers of all levels of experience.

The captain's boat is just the vessel you want for an offshore excursion. She comes fully stocked with state-of-the-art navigational systems and electronics, outriggers and downriggers, a flybridge, private head, bed, and kitchen. She's also wheelchair accessible, equipped with all necessary safety equipment, and safe for children of all ages. The captain can take up to 6 people per trip and each person can fish at the same time.

Once you reach the offshore fishing grounds, you'll be trolling/chunking for a range of pelagics, such as White Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Yellowfin, and Bluefin Tuna. For your inshore trips, Capt. George will take you on an epic battle against some hard-fighters like Striped Bass, Bluefish, and Back Drum. Some other species you can target include Spanish Mackerel, Black Seabass, and Triggerfish as well. Each trip includes top-quality Penn and Shimano rods and reels, live bait, lures, and a first mate to assist you with anything you need.

Gear into action and get ready for Heavy Hitter Sportfishing to show you what big game fishing is all about! Your fishing license is included in the trip, so you can focus more on the fishing and less about the logistics. Everything is taken care of, all you need to do is book your trip, bring some snacks, drinks, comfortable clothing, and let Capt. George show you a great time!

Truly a blessed day!!!
Half Day Trip (PM) – Trolling on July 20, 20261 adult

CAPTAIN GEORGE AND MATE MORROW put me expertly on top of some of the best FISHING, I’ve experienced in YEARS!! Each and every Box of an EPIC Day fishing was checked off 3 times over. From Crew and Boat to Tackle and weather. If it was more than three minutes from the boat settling into the anchor to the first Hook-up I couldn’t tell!! Absolutley from the moment we started until the last second we were on fish!!! We Hooked up so many times, we all Cap, Mate and myself lost count and had to run back through it to get the total. 11 Sharks 2. Different species anywhere from 35-180lbs. GOD definitely blessed me with a GREAT DAY ON THE HEAVY HITTER!! Thanks again to Capt. George (A conversationalist unmatched), and Morrow (A young man with an old souls work ethic). Could not in any way have received a better time!!!!!

More fish than we could handle!
4 Hr half day bottom fishing on August 5, 20264 adults1 child

Took my son for his 16th bday. He seems a bit cursed because he has yet to ever catch anything large but we caught so many blue fish (47) that we couldn’t even keep up with reeling them in. The captain and mate worked hard for us and were great. I would definitely recommend this team!

Perfect day on the bay!
4 Hr half day bottom fishing on July 14, 20263 adults3 children

We had a great day out with Captain George and Mates Tommy and Morrow! They made sure to find us some action with the big sand tiger sharks in the Delaware Bay. There was plenty of activity for our young crew of 3 boys (11, 9, 7) and Tommy, George and Morrow were extremely helpful with assisting the boys with landing these big fish. Captain George was never short of a good story either. We will absolutely be booking the Heavy Hitter again in the future!

Great trip! Captain George put us on fish right away. Caught about 10 fish each and were able to keep 9 fish. Two nice flounder and sea bass. Bill was a great first mate and we hope to fish with them again!
