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.

Crappie
Crappie fishing around Bernardsville, NJ, can be quite rewarding if you know where to look. Focus on the smaller lakes and ponds in the area, particularly those with submerged structure like fallen trees or docks. These provide excellent habitat for crappie to congregate. Spring is prime time, as the crappie move into shallow water to spawn, but you can also find them in deeper water near structure during the summer and fall. A practical tip is to use small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber. Experiment with different depths until you find where the crappie are holding. The crappie here are often found around brush piles, so use a long rod to drop your bait precisely. Another tip: many of these ponds have limited access, so be sure to respect private property and look for designated access points. While not known for trophy-sized fish, the crappie here are plentiful and can provide a fun day of fishing.
