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
The streams around Peapack and Gladstone provide opportunities to target brown trout in a classic New Jersey setting. The upper reaches of the Raritan River's South Branch and its tributaries are your best bet. These are generally smaller streams, requiring a stealthy approach. Spring and fall are the ideal times, with the spring offering mayfly hatches and the fall seeing spawning activity. Be aware of seasonal regulations and closures. A local angler's secret is to focus on the shaded areas and undercut banks where trout like to hold, particularly during the warmer months. Access can be tricky as much of the land is private, so look for designated public access points or obtain permission where necessary. The browns here are often wild and can be surprisingly selective, so carry a variety of flies and be prepared to experiment.
