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.

Channel Catfish
If you're after channel catfish near Bound Brook, the Raritan River is your best bet. This river system supports a healthy population of catfish, offering anglers a chance at some decent-sized fish. The warmer months, from late spring through summer, are the most productive times to fish for them, especially during the evening and nighttime hours. Look for areas with deeper water, structure like fallen trees, or around bridge pilings. Traditional catfish baits like chicken liver, nightcrawlers, and stinkbaits are all effective. A useful tip: Use a heavier weight to keep your bait on the bottom, especially in areas with current. Also, be prepared for some potentially muddy conditions along the riverbanks, so wear appropriate footwear.
