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 targeting Northern Pike in Rockleigh, New Jersey, Lake Tappan is your primary destination. This reservoir, straddling the New York/New Jersey border, holds a healthy population of pike that can reach impressive sizes. Spring and fall are prime times, as the pike are most active in cooler water temperatures. Early spring, just after ice-out, can be particularly productive as they move into shallower areas to spawn. For bank access, try the areas around the Tappan Path, a paved trail offering shoreline fishing. Be aware that boat access is controlled, and permits may be required. Local tip: Pike in Lake Tappan are often found near weed beds and submerged structure. Use weedless lures or spinnerbaits to avoid snags. Also, be prepared for some decent-sized fish; bring a net and heavy-duty tackle. The pike here are known for their aggressive strikes, so hold on tight!
