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.

Winter Flounder
Cape May, New Jersey, is a historic fishing port with a diverse fishery, and winter flounder are part of that mix. While not as abundant as in some northern locales, the back bays and channels around Cape May offer opportunities for anglers seeking these tasty flatfish. The best time to target them is in the spring, from late March through May, as the water temperatures rise. Look for muddy or silty bottoms in the calmer waters of the Delaware Bay, particularly near the mouths of creeks and rivers. A productive technique is to anchor and chum with a mixture of clam and fish scraps to attract flounder to your area. A local tip is to check with local tackle shops for the latest information on where the fish are biting and what baits are working best. Several public boat ramps provide access to the Delaware Bay and its tributaries. Be mindful of the strong currents and tides in the area. While not known for huge numbers, Cape May can produce some impressive-sized flounder, making it a worthwhile destination for anglers willing to put in the time.
