About Captain:
I’m Captain Josh Hudda, owner and operator of Hudda Hoo Sportfishing, based right here in Beaufort, North Carolina. Fishing these waters isn’t just something I do — it’s a way of life built over years of experience running offshore and learning what it takes to consistently put anglers on big fish.
I run a 27’ Sea Hunt center console, a versatile platform that allows me to adapt from nearshore to offshore fishing along the Crystal Coast depending on conditions. My focus is on big game offshore fishing out of Beaufort and Morehead City, targeting wahoo, dolphin (mahi-mahi), tuna, and swordfish when conditions line up. I also work productive offshore structure for grouper and other bottom fish, staying locked in on what’s producing.
Offshore fishing here on the Crystal Coast is all about timing, water movement, and preparation. I’m constantly tracking conditions — water temperature breaks, current edges, and bait activity — to put my clients in the best possible position for success on every trip.
Whether you’re looking for a wahoo charter out of Beaufort, NC, chasing tuna offshore of Morehead City, or planning a full day of offshore fishing on the Crystal Coast, I tailor every trip to your goals, experience level, and the conditions that day.
What I enjoy most is sharing that offshore experience with my clients. Whether you’re a seasoned angler chasing your next big fish or stepping into offshore fishing for the first time, I make sure every trip is professional, safe, and memorable.
If you’re ready to get offshore, chase big game, and experience some of the best fishing the North Carolina coast has to offer — I’d love to have you aboard.

"We booked Captain Mark on a recommendation from a friend and honestly it exceeded every expectation. He had us on mahi within the first hour — ended the day with a full cooler and a wahoo that put up a serious fight. The boat was spotless, gear was dialed in, and Mark clearly knows every current edge out there. Due South is the real deal."
