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 Margate City is best known for its saltwater fishing, dedicated anglers can find opportunities for brown trout within a reasonable drive. Focus your efforts on the tributaries of the Mullica River, like the Batsto River, or the Great Egg Harbor River upstream. These pine barrens streams, though acidic, hold surprisingly healthy populations of wild and stocked brown trout. Spring and fall are your best bets, with cooler water temperatures triggering feeding activity. Access can be tricky, often requiring wading through thick brush. Look for designated access points along Route 542 near Batsto Village for easier entry. Be aware that these are generally small streams, so finesse tactics with light tackle are key. Consider using small spinners, dry flies, or nymphs to entice bites. The brown trout here tend to be on the smaller side, but the wild beauty of the surroundings makes for a rewarding experience.
