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.

Flounder
Belmar is a fantastic location to target flounder, especially in the warmer months. These flatfish are abundant in the local waterways and offer a rewarding fishing experience. The Shrewsbury and Navesink Rivers, along with the Manasquan River, are prime spots to find flounder. The fishing typically picks up in the spring as the water warms and continues through the summer and into early fall. Drifting with a bottom rig baited with sandworms, clams, or squid is a popular method. Look for areas with muddy or sandy bottoms and structure such as docks, pilings, and channel edges. Local tip: Pay attention to the tides, as flounder often feed more actively during periods of strong current. The Belmar Marine Basin offers easy access and boat rentals for exploring these productive waters. Remember to check size and creel limits with the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife before heading out.
