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
Finding brown trout fishing near Neptune City, New Jersey, requires a bit of travel, as the coastal plain isn't prime trout habitat. Your best bet is to head inland towards the more mountainous regions of northern New Jersey. The Pequest River is a popular option. Spring and fall are the ideal times to target brown trout, particularly during the stocking periods. Look for deeper pools, undercut banks, and areas with good current. Small spinners, spoons, and live bait (where permitted) are effective. Fly fishing can also be productive, especially with nymph patterns. Be aware of the regulations regarding catch-and-release areas and bait restrictions. The Pequest Trout Hatchery is nearby, so the river benefits from regular stocking. Brown trout in this region can be challenging to catch, but the reward of landing a wild or holdover fish is well worth the effort. Remember to check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife website for the latest stocking schedules and regulations before you go. The river can be accessed from multiple points along Pequest Road.
