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.

Rainbow Trout
While Dunellen, New Jersey, isn't a renowned trout destination, the state does stock several nearby streams with rainbow trout. The best time to target these stocked rainbows is during the spring and fall stocking seasons. Check the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife website for the latest stocking schedules. These fish are often eager to bite after being released, making for some exciting action. Small spinners, spoons, and bait like worms or PowerBait are effective choices. A key tip is to fish the areas immediately downstream of bridges and culverts, as these often hold trout. Be aware that many of these streams are small and can be easily spooked, so approach the water cautiously. While you won't find trophy-sized rainbows here, it's a great opportunity for some close-to-home trout fishing.
