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 around Teterboro, NJ, the Hackensack River offers your best bet. These adaptable fish thrive in the muddy bottoms and slower currents of this urban waterway. The warmer months, from late spring through summer, are ideal for targeting catfish, especially during the evening and nighttime hours. Look for areas near bridges, culverts, or where tributaries enter the main river channel – these spots often concentrate baitfish and, consequently, catfish. A local trick is to use stinkbaits or cut bait fished on the bottom with a simple Carolina rig. Public access is available at several parks along the river, but be mindful of the urban environment. The catfish in the Hackensack aren't known for trophy sizes, but you can reliably find decent eating-size fish.
