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 near East Rutherford, NJ, can be quite productive in the smaller lakes and ponds surrounding the area, as well as in the backwaters of the Hackensack River. These fish thrive in areas with plenty of structure. Spring is the best time to target crappie, as they move into shallow waters to spawn. Look for them near submerged brush, docks, and weed beds. Minnows and small jigs are highly effective baits. Local Tip: Check local tackle shops for information on specific hotspots and recent catches. Many of the smaller ponds are accessible from shore, making them ideal for anglers without boats. Light tackle is key for crappie fishing, as they have delicate mouths. Be patient and persistent, and you're likely to find success.
