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
Targeting Flounder in Surf City, NJ, can be a rewarding experience, especially in the back bays and inlets. Barnegat Bay is known for its Flounder population, and the area around the Route 35 bridge can be particularly productive. These flatfish are ambush predators, so focus your efforts around structure like docks, pilings, and channel edges. The best time to target Flounder is typically from late spring through early fall, as the water warms and they become more active. Drifting with a baited fluke rig is a popular and effective technique. Try using live minnows, squid strips, or Gulp! artificial baits. A local tip: chumming with a mixture of clam chum and sand can help attract Flounder to your fishing area. Be patient and work your bait slowly along the bottom. The bite can be subtle, so pay close attention to your line.
