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
If you're seeking Crappie near Milford, NJ, explore the Delaware River backwaters and smaller ponds in the surrounding area. These fish thrive in areas with submerged structure. Spring and fall are the best times to target them. During the spring spawn, crappie move into shallow, protected areas to nest. In the fall, they school up near deeper structure as the water cools. A helpful tip: Focus on bodies of water like Merrill Creek Reservoir (a bit of a drive, but worth it) or smaller ponds associated with the D&R Canal. Look for submerged brush piles, docks, and fallen trees. Small jigs tipped with minnows or tubes are highly effective. Crappie in this region can be surprisingly large, with some exceeding 12 inches. Be prepared to move around to find the schools, and remember to check local regulations for creel limits.
