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 in Raritan, NJ? While not the first species that comes to mind for this location, determined anglers can find walleye in the Raritan River, particularly in the deeper pools and near structure. The best time to target them is during the pre-spawn period in early spring or during the fall as water temperatures cool. Walleye are light-sensitive, so focus your efforts during low-light conditions, such as dawn, dusk, or on overcast days. Access to the river can be limited, so research public access points and boat ramps beforehand. The stretch near the Columbia Trail crossing is known to hold fish. Jigging with minnows or using crankbaits that imitate local forage fish can be effective. Walleye in this region tend to be smaller than in more renowned walleye fisheries, but the challenge of finding them makes it rewarding. Check local regulations regarding size and creel limits, as they can vary.
