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 fishing near North Plainfield, NJ, the Pequest River is your go-to destination. This is a designated trout-stocked stream, offering excellent opportunities for both stocked and holdover fish. The Pequest Trout Hatchery is located right on the river, ensuring consistent stocking throughout the season. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, with spring offering the excitement of freshly stocked fish and fall providing beautiful foliage and less crowded conditions. A popular access point is the Pequest Trout Hatchery and Natural Resource Education Center, which allows bank fishing. For fly fishing, try using nymph patterns or dry flies during hatches. The trout in the Pequest can be selective, so experiment with different presentations and fly patterns. Remember to check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife website for the latest stocking schedule and regulations.
