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 Ventnor City requires venturing slightly inland to find suitable freshwater habitats. Look for crappie in the calmer, weedy areas of local ponds and canals. These fish tend to congregate around submerged structure such as fallen trees, docks, and vegetation. Spring and fall are the prime times to target crappie, as they move into shallower waters to spawn in the spring and feed aggressively in the fall. A key local tip is to use small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber near submerged structure. Also, pay attention to water clarity; crappie prefer clearer water. Access to some of these areas might be limited, so research public access points or consider kayak fishing for better reach. The crappie in this region are generally of average size, with most fish ranging from 8 to 12 inches.
