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
While Wildwood Crest is renowned for its saltwater fishing, pursuing walleye requires venturing inland to freshwater systems. Look to the Delaware River watershed, specifically the impoundments and tributaries north and west of Wildwood Crest, for your best chance. These areas offer the cooler, deeper waters walleye prefer. Spring (post-spawn) and fall are prime times, as walleye become more active in shallower water to feed. Focus on areas with submerged structure like rock piles, bridge pilings, and drop-offs. A local tip: check the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife's website for stocking reports and recommended walleye waters. Also, be aware that water levels in the Delaware can fluctuate rapidly, so monitor conditions before heading out. While not a traditional walleye destination, the dedicated angler can find success with the right knowledge and persistence.
