James Pitetti

Member since February 2023 Buxton, United States
Background
I’m Jimmy, a native of Hatteras Island with over 50 years of experience fishing in the Pamlico, though my journey as a Captain started in 2022. I’m always happy to tell stories and teach people about the Hatteras Island way of life!
Techniques
Light Tackle fishing and experimenting with Top Water lures are my favorite ways to fish! I’m always trying new techniques and equipment to expand my understanding of the waters and species in the area.
