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
Finding Northern Pike near West Wildwood requires venturing inland to some of the larger freshwater bodies. While not a renowned pike destination, there are a few lakes and reservoirs within an hour's drive that hold populations of this ambush predator. Early spring, just after ice-out (if applicable), and late fall are typically the best times to target pike, as they become more active in cooler water temperatures. Look for weedy areas, drop-offs, and submerged timber where pike lie in wait for prey. A local tip is to use large, flashy lures or live baitfish to entice strikes. Be prepared with wire leaders, as pike have sharp teeth that can easily cut through monofilament or fluorocarbon line. Note that many of these locations have boat launch fees or require permits, so research the regulations before heading out.
