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
Flounder fishing around Long Branch, New Jersey, centers on the Shrewsbury and Navesink Rivers, as well as nearshore areas along the coast. These flatfish are a popular target, particularly in the spring and fall when water temperatures are moderate. Look for them near sandy or muddy bottoms, especially around docks, bridges, and channel edges. Drifting with a fluke rig baited with squid or sand worms is a common and effective technique. A local tip: Focus on areas with slight current, as this helps to disperse scent and attract flounder. Also, be prepared to experiment with different jig head weights to maintain bottom contact. The flounder in this region are known for their subtle bites, so pay close attention to your line and be ready to set the hook at the slightest indication of a strike. Access to the Shrewsbury and Navesink Rivers is available via multiple public boat ramps.
