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 Lincoln Park isn't known as a premier trout destination, the Pequannock River, which flows nearby, does receive seasonal stockings of rainbow trout. The best time to target these trout is during the spring stocking season, typically from March through May. The Pequannock is a relatively small river, so light tackle is recommended. Spin anglers can use small spinners, spoons, or trout magnets. Fly anglers can find success with nymphs, dry flies, and small streamers. Access to the Pequannock River is relatively good in some areas, but be respectful of private property. Remember to check the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife's website for stocking schedules and regulations, as catch-and-release regulations may be in effect in certain sections. Be prepared for potentially crowded conditions immediately after stocking.
