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 might not be the first species that comes to mind when you think of northern New Jersey, but the Oradell Reservoir (Lake Tappan) holds a decent population of these fish. It's a bit of an under-the-radar walleye fishery, which can be a good thing! The colder months, late fall through early spring, are generally the best times to target them. Walleye tend to be deeper during the day, so focus your efforts on drop-offs, submerged structure, and the main lake channel. Jigging with bucktails or using deep-diving crankbaits can be effective. Night fishing can also be productive. Access is through United Water designated areas, and a permit is required, so plan ahead. Lake Tappan walleye are known to be good fighters, and while trophy-sized fish are rare, you can certainly find some quality eaters. Be prepared to adjust your tactics based on water clarity, as it can vary.
