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 Victory Gardens itself doesn't have trout streams, you're within striking distance of some excellent brown trout fishing in northern New Jersey. The Pequest River, known for its cold, clear water, is a popular destination. The South Branch of the Raritan River also holds a healthy population of browns, especially the stretch above Ken Lockwood Gorge. These rivers are stocked annually, but also hold wild, holdover trout that can be quite challenging to catch. Spring (April-May) and fall (September-October) are the prime times for targeting brown trout, especially during and after stocking. Early morning and late evening are generally the most productive times. A local tip is to use small nymphs and dry flies that imitate the natural insects found in these streams. Access to the Pequest River is available at the Pequest Trout Hatchery and Natural Resource Education Center. Remember to check the current fishing regulations, as some sections may have specific restrictions or be catch-and-release only. The brown trout in this area can be quite wary, so stealth and a careful presentation are key to success.
