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.

Normandy Beach offers a prime location to intercept striped bass migrating along the New Jersey coast. Situated on the Barnegat Peninsula, it provides access to both the open ocean and the calmer waters of Barnegat Bay. Spring and fall are the best times to target stripers here, as they move in and out of the bay. Surf fishing is popular, particularly along the beach and near the inlet. A crucial tip for this area is to understand the tide; fishing the outgoing tide near the inlet can be very productive, as it pulls baitfish out into the ocean. Consider using clam or bunker as bait, or try casting artificials like bucktails and swim shads. Boaters can find success trolling along the channels and near the bridges. The striped bass in this area are often feeding heavily on sand eels and bunker, so matching your lure to the local forage is key.
