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 Mantoloking is better known for its saltwater fishing, dedicated anglers can find opportunities for brown trout in the nearby freshwater rivers and streams that feed into Barnegat Bay. The Metedeconk River, specifically its upper reaches, is a potential starting point. Spring and fall are the prime times to target these fish, as water temperatures are cooler and the trout are more active. Early mornings and late evenings are generally the most productive times of day. Be prepared for a challenge; these trout aren't stocked and can be quite wary. Access can be tricky; look for public access points along the river or inquire about permitted access through local fly fishing clubs. Remember to check the current regulations for catch-and-release requirements and any specific gear restrictions. The brown trout in these smaller NJ streams tend to be on the smaller side, but the thrill of the hunt makes it worthwhile.
