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 Glen Ridge, New Jersey, requires a bit of exploration, but there are opportunities to be found. While Glen Ridge itself doesn't have a major crappie fishery, nearby reservoirs and lakes like the Oradell Reservoir or even smaller ponds within the surrounding Essex County parks can hold crappie populations. Spring is the prime time, as crappie move into shallow, weedy areas to spawn. Look for brush piles, submerged trees, or docks where crappie might congregate. Small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber are effective presentations. Be sure to check local regulations regarding fishing access and permits for the specific water body you plan to fish. A good starting point could be exploring the smaller, less-pressured ponds in the area. The crappie in these waters may not be huge, but the chance for a quiet, local fishing experience is well worth it.
