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
While Cliffside Park itself doesn't have readily accessible trout streams, its proximity to the legendary trout waters of northern New Jersey makes it a viable base for chasing brown trout. The nearby Ramapo River and Pequannock River, both within a short drive, are known for their healthy populations of wild and stocked browns. Spring and fall are prime times, with the trout actively feeding and water temperatures ideal. Early morning and late evening are typically most productive. A key tip is to check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife stocking schedules online before you go. Many areas are catch-and-release only, so be aware of local regulations. Wading can be challenging in some sections due to slippery rocks, so felt-soled boots are highly recommended. Target deeper pools and runs with nymphs or small streamers for the best results. These rivers hold some surprisingly large browns, so don't be afraid to upsize your presentation if you're not getting any action.
