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
For Rainbow Trout near Kenilworth, New Jersey, you'll need to head to the Pequannock River or the South Branch of the Raritan River. These are both stocked trout streams that offer decent fishing opportunities, especially during the spring and fall stocking seasons. The Pequannock River is known for its scenic beauty and challenging wading conditions, while the South Branch of the Raritan River is a larger river that offers more room to fish. For access to the Pequannock, look for public access points along Route 23. For the South Branch, consider the Ken Lockwood Gorge Wildlife Management Area. Local tip: Trout in these streams can be wary, so use light line and small lures or flies. Natural-looking presentations tend to work best. After stocking, drifting worms or PowerBait can be effective. As the season progresses, switch to flies or small spinners to imitate natural food sources. Be sure to check the current regulations regarding size and creel limits before you go.
