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 Newton, NJ, can be quite rewarding, particularly in the numerous lakes and ponds that dot the landscape. Lake Lenape is a particularly good option. These panfish are often found around submerged structure, such as fallen trees, docks, and weed beds. Spring is prime time for crappie, as they move into shallow water to spawn. Look for them in protected coves and near brush piles. Small jigs and minnows are effective baits. A local's trick is to use a slip bobber rig to present your bait at the right depth. Adjust the bobber stop to suspend your bait just above the submerged structure. Another good tip: early mornings and late evenings are often the most productive times to fish for crappie. The crappie in this region tend to be decent sized, making for a tasty meal. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and creel limits before you head out.
