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 in Pompton Lakes, NJ, presents a unique challenge, but dedicated anglers can find success in Pompton Lake and the deeper sections of the Pompton River. These fish prefer cooler water and lower light conditions, so focus your efforts during the early morning, late evening, or on overcast days. Spring and fall, when water temperatures are cooler, are prime times. Target areas near the dam, submerged humps, and channel edges. Jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers are effective baits. Trolling crankbaits along deeper contours can also produce results. A fish finder is essential for locating walleye holding on structure. Be aware of the lake's thermocline during the summer months, as walleye will often congregate below it. Walleye fishing in Pompton Lakes requires patience and persistence, but the reward of landing one of these elusive fish is well worth the effort. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and bag limits.
