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.

Smallmouth Bass
While Flemington, New Jersey, isn't primarily known for its smallmouth bass fishing, dedicated anglers can find some decent action in the South Branch of the Raritan River. The key is to focus on the rocky sections of the river, especially areas with faster current and deeper pools. These smallies favor these areas for holding and ambushing prey. Summer and fall are prime times for smallmouth, as the water warms up and they become more active. Crayfish imitations, tubes, and small crankbaits are effective lures. Wading is a popular way to fish the South Branch, but be cautious of slippery rocks and fluctuating water levels. Look for areas with boulders and current breaks, as these often hold smallmouth. A good starting point is the stretch of river near High Bridge. Remember to practice catch and release to help maintain the smallmouth population.
