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.

Walleye
Walleye fishing near Highlands, NJ, requires venturing inland to larger freshwater reservoirs and rivers. While not a classic walleye destination, the Delaware River, a bit of a drive west, holds a population of these prized fish. Alternatively, consider exploring some of the larger reservoirs in northern New Jersey, like Lake Hopatcong or Monksville Reservoir. Walleye fishing is best during the cooler months, particularly in the fall and early spring when they move into shallower water to feed or spawn. Focus your efforts around structure like submerged rocks, points, and drop-offs. Jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows are effective, as are crankbaits that mimic the baitfish found in these waters. Local tackle shops near the reservoirs can provide up-to-date information on current conditions and productive spots. Be sure to obtain a New Jersey fishing license and familiarize yourself with specific regulations for the water body you plan to fish, as they can vary.
