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
Brown trout fishing near Perth Amboy involves venturing westward into the more mountainous regions of New Jersey. You won't find them in the immediate vicinity of the bay. The Pequest River and its tributaries, a bit of a drive from Perth Amboy, are renowned for their wild and stocked brown trout populations. Spring and fall are prime times, with the spring offering excellent dry fly fishing opportunities during hatches. Fall sees browns becoming more aggressive as they prepare for spawning. Access to the Pequest is generally good, with several public access points along the river. Check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife's website for specific access maps and regulations. A local tactic that often works well is to nymph fish the deeper runs and pools, especially during midday when trout are less active on the surface. The browns in the Pequest are known for their wariness, so stealth and careful presentation are key.
