Alabama has one of the finest fisheries in the world.  The state has built an artificial reef system second to none in the United States.  Fishing out of Mobile Bay gets you to the spots with the lowest fishing pressure on the coast of Alabama.

From the avid fisherman to families and first timers, Captain Steve and first mate will do everything they can to put you on the fish and keep you there. We specialize in longer trips but also offer shorter trips to accommodate you and your family.

You’ll spend the day aboard a 30ft ProKat Catamaran boat. This boat has been beautifully maintained, with twin Yamaha 300s that will see you on top of the fish in no time. With top end electronics, battle tested equipment and the captain and crew’s experience,  you’ll be sure to have the best opportunity to catch fish of a lifetime and create great memories.

Depending on which trip you choose, you’ll be able to target a range of species, from Shark, Snapper, Grouper, Amberjack, King and Spanish Mackerel, Wahoo, and Mahi Mahi. Each trip offers something different, giving you the opportunity to target your trophy fish.

The first mate will work hard to make sure you have a great day. After the trip, please remember that the industry standard of 20% is customary to tip him. You are welcome to bring along food and drink on the trip – you’ll need to keep your energy up.

All that’s left to do is book, and start thinking how you’ll cook your catch once home!

Fishing with Stephen
5 Hour – Combo Trolling/Bottom on September 19, 20252 adults
Captain Crews provided us a wonderful day on the water. We started by looking for Cobia and the one we hooked into broke us off after several minutes. We proceeded to do some bottom fishing and hooked into several dozen Red Snapper which happened to be out of season. Captain crews spent extra time beyond our 5 hour trip looking for some fish we could take home. We hooked into an Amberjack and had a couple of fish taken by sharks. An enjoyable day on the water with plenty of action, good company and fresh air! We really appreciated the extra effort by the Captain and crew!

Thanks David. We appreciate the review. I know fishing was tough that day, but it's nice having people that roll with it. Hopefully we get the opportunity to take you out next time and put you on a better bite. Thank y'all again for fishing with us.

6 Hour Trip – Bottom Fishing on April 17, 20256 adults
Let me start out by saying how much fun our 6 hr. trip was for the 6 of us. I'm a 70 year old retired ort truck driver and never ocean fished I spent 4 days looking for a 30 ft. boat, fast boat, keep or release and 3 day cancelation. That's how I found Black Flag Company thru Fishing Booker. First stop Captain Steve didn't like it. 2nd stop we wore out 1st mate Wess unhooking our fish. We caught so many Vermillion Snapers we threw back the small ones that we caught after getting close to limit. We got our limit in no time and mover to our 3rd stop for gigging. Caught some big fish but couldn't keep them. My brother inlaw must of had Bobby dick, he fought with it for a while and the line broke. [ you all know --- the big one that got away lol ] Captain Steve is a very personal able man, you can talk to him anytime with questions and he has some great stories to tell. Captain Steve and Wess fileted our catch in no time. Thank you Captain Steve and Wess for an awesome trip that I'll never forget. Dennis

3 Hour Intro Inshore/Nearshore - 12:00 PM on January 4, 20262 adults3 children
We got our 3 boys (ages 11,8,7) a trip to fish for Xmas! We just took a short trip because we didn’t know how the boys and myself would handle being on the ocean for a long time, but we had the best time!!! The captain and crew were so sweet and even gave us some extra time to try and catch some bigger fish!! Would definitely recommend and will be coming back when we get a chance!! Thanks guys for making out trip so much fun!

5 Hour – Combo Trolling/Bottom on June 23, 20256 adults
There’s a reason Captain Stephen is so highly rated. His innate ability to read the elements and consistently find the fish is truly unmatched. Despite splitting a major storm cell at sea, he skillfully navigated us into a serene stretch of clear skies and calm waters. In just a couple of hours, we were limited out on red snapper, then enjoyed the rest of the trip trolling for mackerel. He delivered non-stop excitement and great catch success—highly recommend without hesitation. You won’t be disappointed.
