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 looking for crappie around Stockton, NJ, concentrate your efforts on the Delaware River's slower-moving sections and back channels. These areas provide the calm, brushy cover that crappie prefer. Spring is the best time to target crappie as they move into shallow water to spawn, often congregating around submerged trees and vegetation. Small jigs and minnows suspended under a bobber are highly effective. In the summer, crappie tend to move deeper, seeking cooler water and shade. Try fishing near bridge pilings or submerged structure. A local trick is to use a fish finder to locate schools of crappie before dropping your line. Access to the river is available at several points, including Bulls Island, but be prepared for some rocky shoreline access. Remember that crappie can be sensitive to fishing pressure, so move around if you're not getting bites.
