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
If you're looking for Flounder in New Jersey, the waters around Toms River offer some excellent opportunities. The key here is understanding the seasonal movements of these fish as they transition between the bay and the ocean. Spring and early summer are prime times, as flounder move into the bay seeking warmer water and abundant forage. Try drifting along the channels with a simple fluke or squid strip on a jig head. The oyster beds and muddy bottoms in the Toms River and Barnegat Bay are particularly productive. A local tip: Pay attention to the water clarity. Flounder prefer clearer water, so look for areas less affected by runoff after heavy rains. Also, the Sloop Creek area is a known hotspot, easily accessible by boat from several local marinas.
