About Offpoint Sportsfishing Charters

Capt. Jimmy Pitetti

Capt. Jimmy Pitetti of Offpoint Sportsfishing Charters is a lifelong native of Hatteras Island, raised in Buxton, NC. His family’s roots in the Hatteras Island Community reach back decades, including some of the earliest Lightkeepers and Surfmen at the Coast Guard Lifesaving stations. His great grandfather, Nace Jennette, served as the first Federal Game Warden on Hatteras Island in the 1920’s.

Fishing began for Jimmy at a young age, when he joined his grandfather aboard a skiff in pursuit of Speckled Trout, Red Drum and Bluefish. During his teens and twenties, experienced local fishermen taught him to surf fish for Red Drum at Cape Point and seek Speckled Trout throughout the Pamlico Sound.

Today, he fishes the Pamlico Sound with Topwater lures and light tackle, pursuing the same species that first drew him to the water. Sharing those experiences with others is one of the most rewarding parts of his work, especially watching someone catch a first Drum or Speckled Trout. When a Drum strikes the Topwater Lure and erupts from the water, the excitement creates a memorable day.

Growing up on the island and later becoming a charter boat Captain has given Jimmy a firsthand view of how his community has changed. He brings that adaptable spirit aboard the boat, aiming not only to fill the cooler with fish but also to create an incredible memory for guests to carry home.

Jimmy looks forward to meeting each of you, creating new memories together, and sharing his incredible slice of paradise.
