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.

Northern Pike
While not as renowned as other regions, Allenhurst, New Jersey, and its surrounding areas offer a chance to tangle with northern pike in some of the local freshwater systems. Deal Lake and some sections of the Shark River are your best bets. These pike are typically ambush predators, so focus on areas with dense vegetation, fallen trees, and irregular shorelines. Early spring, just after ice-out, and late fall, as the water cools, are ideal times to target them. Use large lures like swimbaits, crankbaits, or even large spinnerbaits to entice a strike. A steel leader is essential, given the pike's sharp teeth. Be aware of the regulations regarding pike fishing in these waters, as they can vary. Some areas might have size or seasonal restrictions to protect the population. Local tackle shops can provide up-to-date information.
