All of this info about Blackfishing, has really gotten me interested. Can anyone recommend an open Boat. I live in Long Beach and would be willing to travel an hour to the boat. Thanks for the info.

The past two weeks I have been fishing on the Celtic Quest out of Mount Sinai Harbor and have not had a bad trip yet. Today I had a dozen to 9 lbs. Another boat I like is the Pilot from Sheaphead Bay allthough they are still fishing mixed bag. I have been fishing with them since 1978. Larry

I highly recommend the James Joseph out of Huntington. Have been fishing with them for a while and it is always a great day out. Have caught a 9.5 and 10.5 pound fish already this year with fishing only getting better.

Do you have a phone number for the James Joseph? Thanks

Fencer, how's Jimmy behaving this year? He's been a bit calmer on the last few trips I've made. I should be making a trip out there next week if the weather permits.

Recommend you bring ear plugs!

He's been a little better than normal with things getting a little worse lately. The fishing however is hot so it is worth the effot of ignoring him.

I'm planning on going out this Saturday and am considering three boats, Noli Eileen or James Joseph (Huntington) or Celtic Quest (Mt. Sinai). Any recommendations as to which boat?

Thanks in Advance
Joe

My opinion Joe,

Talking about party boats, charter boats, and B&T shops on this forum is a bit tricky. I realize they provide the revenue that keeps this site going(and I love this site) and I'm sure the owners don't want to offend any of their advertisers. So without saying anything bad about the three boats your considering my choice would be in this order:

#1- Celtic Quest
#2- Capt James
#3- Noli Eileen

By the way I have fished on all three boats.

Good Luck,
Larry

I have my own boat and have never fished on any of those three......but two of them have fished on top of me lol

the viking out of montauk is running blackfish trips, check out their website for the dates. from what i have seen they do really good on those trips

 

[flukerr]

The J.J. would be my choice.Yes its crazy but he puts you on fish all of the time. Gama. when you are going out ,let me know,maybe we will meet up.....

 

[624079]

i would have to say.


#1 noli eileen
#2 celtic quest.
#3 james joseph
all three are great captains.
if you go with JJ i agree bring the ear plugs.

Tog Boat

Thanks to all of you for you replies. This is an incredible site! I've heard great things about all three of these boats and I'm sure you can't go wrong with any one of them. Hopefully, I'll be able to post a good report come Sunday.

 

[Gamakatsu]

flukerr, I'm hoping to go next week, either Wed, Thur or Friday. I'll shoot you a PM when I know for sure that I'm going.

The Ocean Eagle in Sheepshead Bay is a great boat during the week(less crowds).Greg and his brothers know their blackfish and really try to put you on fish.There are some real sharpies on this boat and it could be a little humbling,but pay attention to what they do and try to learn.Good luck.
