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 River Edge can be quite rewarding, particularly in the quiet backwaters and slower-moving sections of the Hackensack River and its tributaries. While the Hackensack itself can be a bit challenging due to current, look for connected ponds or impoundments. Spring is prime time, as the crappie move into shallower water to spawn. Small jigs tipped with minnows are deadly, fished under a bobber near structure like submerged trees or docks. Try exploring the Oradell Reservoir which is a short drive away and can hold good populations of crappie. Access to the reservoir requires a permit, so be sure to check local regulations before fishing. Early mornings and late afternoons are often the most productive times, especially on overcast days. The crappie here aren't usually huge, but they're plentiful and make for a tasty meal.
