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
If you're looking to tangle with some Northern Pike in northern New Jersey, New Milford offers a few promising options. The Oradell Reservoir, part of the Hackensack River system, is a prime location known for its healthy pike population. These fish tend to congregate near submerged vegetation and rocky outcroppings, so focus your efforts in these areas. Spring (especially after ice-out) and fall are the most productive times, as the pike are actively feeding to spawn or fatten up for winter. Keep an eye on water levels, as they can fluctuate, impacting fish location and accessibility. A practical tip: launch from the Oradell Reservoir Boat Launch; it provides good access to the main body of water. Consider using large swimbaits or jerkbaits to entice strikes from these ambush predators. The pike in this region can be quite large, so be prepared for a good fight!
