Knot Tuggin' Sportfishing
Knot Tuggin’ Sportfishing welcomes you to Virginia Beach, Virginia. Come join Captain Zach and embark on the area’s lovely inshore, nearshore, and offshore waters to chase a host of interesting and prized species. Captain Zach is a lifelong angler who’ll see to it that you enjoy your trip and land a fine catch. Join him aboard Knot Tuggin’ and spend wonderful moments on the water!
The captain uses a 35’ Carolina Classic offshore sport fishing boat that can sit up to 6 guests. It’s powered by twin 480 HP Cummins engines that will get you to the fishing grounds fast and comfortably. For navigation, there are full-featured electronics needed for efficient movement. Knot Tuggin’ has all the amenities to keep you comfortable while on your trip. A great working A/C and heat, kitchen with a microwave to heat up your lunch, full head, couches, and plenty of storage for all your gear and fish! The boat has also got a flybridge and is equipped with outriggers and a livewell. To make your trip even better, there’s a TV you can use and a first mate will also join you aboard.
You’ll go after Mahi Mahi, Black Seabass, Yellowfin Tuna, Tautog, Spadefish, Wahoo, and many more. You can bottom fish, deep sea fish, troll, spin, jig, and pop. You’re free to keep your catch and you can bring kids on your trip.
The only thing you will need to bring is whatever you’d like to eat and drink for the day. Sunscreen (please no spray sunscreen as it stains the boat) and sunglasses are recommended. Captain Zach provides all the fishing equipment, as well as your fishing license.
Please give the captain a call to set up your trip of a lifetime!

An Incredible Tuna Trip out of Virginia Beach!
We had the most amazing fishing adventure this August out of Virginia Beach! We booked a12 hr trip and wrapped it up an hour early after meeting the daily limit, and it was worth every minute. The weather was perfect, the ocean was calm 55 miles out, and Captain Zach and Mate Hunter running the trip knew exactly what they were doing. The boat was really well setup, and really comfortable for the ride. Tuna fishing in August out of VB is spotty I’m told, and they absolutely delivered — helping us bring in 12 beautiful yellowfin tuna (about 200 pounds of fillets) by the end of the day. Each hookup was pure adrenaline, and the excitement on board was contagious. The crew kept everything running smoothly, from setting lines to giving tips that really made a difference. Not only did we come home with coolers full of fresh tuna, but it was a great chance for our family to create lifelong memories of teamwork and laughter. If you’re looking for a top-notch offshore fishing experience out of Virginia Beach, Knot Tugging should be your first call. (757) 685-6873.

Surprised my son for his 16th birthday with his closest buddies for a day of fishing on the Knot Tuggin. Zach and Hunter were great with the teens ensuring they were safe and successful fisherman. I highly recommend this trip. We went home with our limit and enjoyed fish tacos for dinner.

Had a fantastic trip and caught a good amount of fish. The boat was great. The captian was fantastic and so was the mate. I would recommend anyone take a trip with them.
