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 Keansburg, New Jersey, requires a bit of exploration, but it can be quite rewarding. Look to the larger freshwater bodies of water in the region, including some of the reservoirs and lakes further inland. These areas can hold surprisingly healthy populations of pike. Early spring, just after ice-out, and late fall, as the water cools, are the best times to target pike, as they become more active and aggressive in preparation for spawning or winter. Focus on areas with weed beds, submerged timber, and drop-offs, as these provide ambush points for pike. A local tip: use a wire leader to prevent pike from biting through your line. Large swimbaits, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits are effective lures for targeting these predatory fish. The pike in this region can be surprisingly large, so be prepared for a fight. Remember to check specific regulations for the water body you are fishing, as some may have size or bag limits for pike.
