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
Channel Catfish anglers in the Far Hills, NJ, area will find that the Millstone River and its connected waterways offer the most consistent action. While not known for monster catfish, the Millstone holds a healthy population of channel cats that can provide a fun and accessible fishing experience. Summer evenings are ideal, as the catfish become more active under the cover of darkness. A simple bottom rig with cut bait or nightcrawlers is a reliable method. A local tip: focus on areas with deeper holes or near submerged structure, as these are prime catfish hangouts. Public access points along the Millstone River Greenway offer good opportunities for bank fishing. The catfish in this area are generally opportunistic feeders and can be caught on a variety of baits, but smelly baits often produce the best results. Be prepared for some smaller fish, but persistence can reward you with a respectable channel cat.
