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 Somerdale, New Jersey, means heading to the Delaware River. While not right in Somerdale, the Delaware offers the best smallmouth opportunities in the region. Focus your efforts on rocky areas, current breaks, and submerged structure. Spring and fall are generally the most productive times. During the warmer months, early morning and late evening are prime times. Tubes, crankbaits, and jerkbaits are all effective lures. Wading is possible in some areas, but a boat allows you to cover more water. There are several public access points and boat ramps along the river. Be aware of the strong currents, especially after rain. One local tip is to pay attention to water clarity – smallmouth prefer clearer water. The smallmouth in the Delaware River can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a good fight. Remember to check both New Jersey and Pennsylvania fishing regulations, as the river forms the border, and different rules may apply depending on which side you're fishing.
