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
Smallmouth bass fishing near Hoboken demands a short journey, but the rewards are worth it. While Hoboken itself is on the Hudson River, which is more known for its striped bass, heading west unlocks access to some excellent smallmouth habitat. The Delaware River, about an hour's drive, is a premier smallmouth destination. Focus on rocky areas and current breaks. Late spring and early fall are arguably the best times, as the smallmouth are actively feeding. A local tip is to use crayfish imitations or tubes dragged along the bottom. Access points along the Delaware are plentiful, but be mindful of private property. The smallmouth in the Delaware are known for their fighting spirit, often found in the faster-moving sections of the river. Consider wading or using a kayak to access prime fishing spots. Remember to check water levels and flow rates before you go.
