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 Hampton, NJ, can be productive, especially in the numerous ponds and reservoirs in the surrounding area. Spruce Run Reservoir is a popular option, offering plenty of submerged structure where crappie tend to congregate. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is the peak season to target crappie as they move into shallower waters to reproduce. Small jigs, minnows, and tube baits fished under a bobber near submerged trees, brush piles, or docks are effective techniques. A local tip: Focus your efforts around areas with submerged timber or artificial fish attractors. These structures provide cover and attract baitfish, which in turn attract crappie. Be mindful of water clarity; crappie tend to prefer slightly stained water. Check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife website for specific regulations and size/creel limits for crappie.
