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.

If you're chasing walleye in central New Jersey, the Raritan River near Sayreville offers a surprisingly good opportunity. While not a traditional walleye hotspot, the 'D&R Canal' section of the Raritan, with its deeper pools and rocky structure, holds a decent population. Your best bet is during the spring spawning run (late March-April) and again in the fall (October-November) as water temperatures cool. Walleye tend to congregate near the deeper holes and current breaks around the Route 9 bridge and further upstream. Local tip: Wading can be productive, but be cautious of slippery rocks and fluctuating water levels, especially after rainfall. Fishing from the bank near the Sayreville pumping station is another accessible option. Jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows, as well as crankbaits that mimic local forage fish, tend to work well. The walleye here aren't giants, averaging 1-3 pounds, but they're a rewarding catch in a unique setting.
