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.

Walleye
While not a renowned walleye destination, Fanwood, NJ, offers some surprisingly good walleye fishing in the Raritan River and nearby reservoirs like the Spruce Run Reservoir. The key is targeting specific areas and understanding their habits. Walleye tend to congregate near structure, so focus on submerged timber, rocky points, and bridge pilings. Spring and fall are prime times to target these fish, as they become more active with cooler water temperatures. Early morning and late evening are especially productive. A practical tip for the Raritan is to fish the deeper pools and eddies, especially after a rain event when the water is slightly murky. Using jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows can be very effective. Be aware of local regulations regarding size and creel limits, as they can vary. Walleye in this region tend to be on the smaller side, but persistence can pay off with a memorable catch.
