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 West Wildwood is better known for its saltwater fishing, dedicated anglers can find opportunities for Brown Trout in the freshwater tributaries and stocked ponds within a reasonable drive inland. The cooler months of spring and fall are prime times to target these fish, as water temperatures are more favorable. Focus on areas with structure like fallen logs, undercut banks, and deeper pools, as these provide cover for trout. A practical tip is to check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife stocking schedules online before your trip to identify recently stocked waters. Remember that many of these waters are small and can be easily overfished, so practice catch and release to help maintain the population. Also, be aware of limited access to some of these more secluded spots, so scout your location on maps beforehand.
