Terry Sullivans Guide Service
Point Pleasant, New Jersey
I am a lifelong resident of Ocean County, New Jersey and have been a professional fishing guide for the past ten years. I have been an intense and avid salt-water fisherman for over thirty years. Both of my boats are especially well suited for fly-fishing. In our local waters we are able to catch large striped bass, bluefish, weakfish, fluke, albacore, bonita, spanish mackerel, and a variety of different tuna. As your charter-fishing guide I will also tailor fit our itinerary to target any specific salt-water species that are within our range and season if you desire. Whether it is live-lining bait or enticing them with a custom tied fly, I well do what it takes to put us on the bite. I would enjoy and welcome the opportunity to make your day an enjoyable experience and pleasantly memorable one fishing the rivers, bays and ocean as your personal salt-water fishing guide.

Brown Trout
Chester, New Jersey, offers some excellent brown trout fishing opportunities, particularly in the streams and rivers that wind through the Black River Wildlife Management Area. These waters, like the Black River itself and its tributaries, provide ideal habitat for wild and stocked browns. Spring and fall are prime times, with the trout actively feeding after the winter thaw and before the cold sets in. Early morning and late evening are often the most productive. Access to the Black River is relatively easy from various points along Route 206. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate rapidly after rain, so check conditions before you go. Many of the browns here are stream-bred, so handle them with care and practice catch and release to help maintain the population. Consider using small nymphs and dry flies that imitate local insects for best results.
