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
Northern Pike fishing near Belvidere, New Jersey, centers primarily on the Delaware River and its tributaries. While not as abundant as in more northern climates, pike are definitely present and can provide a thrilling experience. Look for them in areas with dense vegetation, submerged timber, and slower-moving water. The Pequest River, which flows into the Delaware at Belvidere, can also hold pike. Spring (after ice-out) and fall are the most productive times, as pike become more active in cooler water. Large spinnerbaits, spoons, and crankbaits are effective lures. Dead bait presentations can also work well. Access points along the Delaware are numerous, but be mindful of private property. A boat or kayak can be advantageous for covering more water. Pike in this region tend to be ambush predators, so focus your efforts on areas where they can easily conceal themselves. Be prepared for a fight; these fish are known for their power!
