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
Oakland, NJ, provides access to some decent stocked rainbow trout fishing. The Ramapo River is the primary destination, receiving regular stockings from the state, particularly in the spring. This makes it a great option for anglers looking for a relatively accessible trout fishery. The stocking season generally runs from March to May, and again in the fall. Check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife website for the specific stocking schedule. During these periods, using typical trout baits like worms, PowerBait, or small spinners can be effective. As the water warms in the summer, the trout tend to move to deeper, cooler sections of the river. Early morning and late evening are often the best times to fish. Access to the Ramapo River is available at several points along Route 202. Remember to have a valid NJ fishing license and trout stamp.
