Captain Stephen Crews is the experienced and trusted guide at the helm of Black Flag Company. Raised along the shores of Alabama’s Gulf Coast, his connection to the water runs deep. What began as a childhood love for fishing and boating has evolved into decades of hands-on knowledge, guiding guests through the diverse marine ecosystems of Fort Morgan and Orange Beach. His approach blends experience with genuine passion, making him a steady, knowledgeable presence on every trip.
Known for his calm leadership and friendly nature, Captain Crews has a way of making everyone feel at ease on the water. He’s equally comfortable guiding first-timers through their first catch as he is swapping stories with seasoned anglers. His reputation is built on consistency, professionalism, and a clear understanding of how to read the water. Every trip is approached with patience and a desire to share—not just the catch, but the experience that comes with it.
Captain Crews stays current with all licensing requirements, safety standards, and best practices in both fishing and conservation. His deep familiarity with local fish behavior, tides, and seasonal migrations adds a layer of precision to every charter. He’s the kind of guide who puts in the extra effort—scouting productive spots, tracking patterns, and ensuring the experience is rewarding from start to finish.
About The Boat
Black Flag Company runs two specialized vessels under Captain Crews’ watch. The 36-foot Hatteras Flybridge is a diesel-powered workhorse built for comfort and offshore reliability, ideal for longer trips and bigger targets. The 30-foot ProKat, powered by twin Yamahas, is a fast and agile option for nearshore and inshore fishing. Both boats are clean, well-equipped, and maintained with care—giving guests a solid, secure foundation for every fishing adventure.
