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
Island Heights offers some fantastic flounder fishing, largely thanks to its proximity to Barnegat Bay. Focus your efforts within the bay’s channels and flats. These fish are ambush predators, so key in on areas with structure like docks, pilings, and submerged debris. The spring and fall are prime times, as flounder migrate in and out of the bay. Early season often finds them staging in deeper channels, while the fall sees them fattening up in shallower areas before heading offshore. A local tip: many anglers have success drifting with a simple fluke rig baited with squid or killies. Also, be mindful of the tides – flounder often feed more aggressively during periods of moving water. Remember to check the current regulations for size and bag limits, as they can fluctuate.
