The Flag Program
Custom fishing flags, organized by the signal they fly.
Not one generic flag — a set of builds, each flying a different signal a boat needs to send: what species came up, what went back, what stayed aboard, and which team or boat is flying it. Pick the families your anglers and crews actually use, order them as one set, and reorder against a locked spec so a repeat matches the flags already on the rigger. Every family runs on the same outdoor bunting and the same in-house sewing and print platform.

What came up
Species Flags
Species Flags
Signalsthe fish that was raised or caught — marlin, sailfish, swordfish, tuna, dorado, wahoo, shark.
Buildfull-color dyed graphics on rectangular outdoor bunting, single- or double-sided.
Best forboats and crews that want the day's catch readable from the dock and the next boat over.

What went back
Release & Tag-Release Flags
Release & Tag-Release Flags
Signalsa fish released — flown by the convention your fleet uses — plus a separate tag-and-release T-flag for a fish tagged for a science or conservation program.
Buildclean, high-contrast pennant or T-flag so the release reads unambiguously at a distance.
Best forcatch-and-release crews, guides and tag-and-release programs.

What stayed
Capture Flags
Capture Flags
Signalsa fish boated and kept, flown right-way-up to distinguish it from a release.
Buildthe matching species graphic in a capture format, so release and capture never get confused on the same rigger.
Best fortournament boats and crews scoring boated fish.

Who's flying it
Tournament & Fleet Flags
Tournament & Fleet Flags
Signalsthe event, the line class, or the boat and team identity — line-class flags, event flags and a custom boat burgee or swallowtail.
Best fortournaments, clubs and fleets that need one identity across every boat.
Tournament team apparel →Order the families your program flies as one set — mixed to a single minimum against a locked spec, with a full turnkey private label flag line available. The full itemized set is in the next section.
One Day on the Water
A marlin raised at nine, a sailfish released at noon, a tuna boated at three — by the time the boat clears the inlet, the whole day is flying from the rigger, one flag at a time.
Build a Flag for Every Signal
The Full Set · Itemized
Every flag in the set, and what each one signals.
A boat that fishes a whole season needs the whole vocabulary — not just a marlin flag, but the sail, the tuna, the dorado, the release and the tag flag too. Here's the full set the factory runs, each flag with the one signal it flies, so you can spec a complete rig instead of chasing one flag at a time from five suppliers. (Species artwork is your own or a generic silhouette — we don't copy a registered design.)
Sailfish flag
A sail on the leader — the high-count inshore-to-blue-water signal.
Swordfish flag
A broadbill — day-time or deep-drop.
Tuna flag
Bluefin, yellowfin or bigeye in the box.
Dorado / Mahi flag
The color fish, flown on a mixed-bag day.
Wahoo flag
The speed fish on the spread.
Shark flag
For boats that flag sharks separately.
Release flag
A fish sent back, flown by your fleet's convention so a release reads at a glance.
Tag-and-release T-flag
A fish tagged for a science or conservation program, kept distinct from a plain release.
Capture flag
A fish boated and kept, so capture and release never blur on the same rig.
Line-class & tournament flag
The event or the class fished, for scored days.
Boat burgee / swallowtail
The boat's or team's own identity flag, custom to you.
Order the ones your program flies, mix them to one minimum, and every flag in the set is built to the same weather standard — covered in the next section.
Built to Last · Outdoor Construction
What makes a fishing flag survive a season on the rigger.
The difference between a fishing flag and a novelty flag is the construction. A flag on an outrigger takes constant wind snap, salt spray and full sun — a printed party flag shreds at the fly-end and fades to pastel in weeks. Here's what we build in so a flag reads and holds up over a season, each with the reason it lasts. (Factory-stated construction; representative durability targets.)
Reinforced fly-end + grommet heading
| What we build in | Why it survives the rigger |
|---|---|
| Outdoor flag bunting, not garment knit | Knitted or spun polyester flag bunting chosen for outdoor life — it sheds wind load and dries fast, so a flag snaps in a blow instead of tearing and doesn't hold water like a soft apparel knit. |
| Reinforced fly-end + double-needle hems | The fly-end — the edge that whips hardest in the wind — gets multiple rows of stitching and a reinforced, folded-back finish, and every edge is double-needle hemmed, so the first thing a cheap flag loses is the part we build up most. |
| Heading matched to your rig | A reinforced header with brass grommets, a rope-and-toggle heading or a pole sleeve — spec'd to clip onto your outrigger halyard, a flag line or a pole — so the flag mounts on the gear you fly it from. |
| UV-fast color that stays readable | Graphics are dyed with UV-fast ink/dye held to a representative light- and wash-fastness target, so the marlin stays a marlin and the release still reads after a season of sun and salt rinse instead of bleaching to a pale smear. |
| Single- or double-sided, your call | Single-sided (mirror-read on the back) for economy, or a double-sided build with a blockout layer between plies so both faces read correct-way-round — spec'd per flag to how it'll be seen. |
Build handled — the next question is how your mark and the species art actually go onto the flag. See decoration below →
Make It Yours · Decorated In-House
Species art, boat names and sponsor logos, decorated in-house.
A flag reads as yours only if the mark lands the same way every time — the same species art, the same boat name, in the same place, on flag one and flag five hundred. Every decoration method runs under our own roof, so a branded flag program stays consistent across the run and every reorder.
Full-color species art, dyed in
Species graphics and multi-color artwork go on by dye-sublimation into the bunting, so the color is part of the cloth and survives sun and salt instead of sitting on top like a peel-off print.
Sewn appliqué for bold, durable marks
For a heavy single-color mark or a classic sewn look, a stitched appliqué panel is sewn into the flag — the most weather-durable way to carry a bold shape on an outdoor flag.
Boat name, team and sponsor logo
Add your boat name, team mark or a sponsor logo to any flag in the set, held on file and placed to the same spot on every reorder — a sponsor logo lands identically across the whole rig.
Double-sided, read-right both ways
Order any flag single- or double-sided so your boat name and species art read right-way-round on both faces. A full turnkey private label flag line — art, packaging and labels — is available if you're starting a range from scratch.
Spec'd to Your Rig
Sizes, headings and formats — spec'd to your rig and your program.
A boat's flags aren't one size or one shape. Every flag in the program comes in the sizes, shapes and headings a real rig uses, so a fleet's flags fit the gear they fly from — and you mix flags across the set to hit the minimum, then reorder against a locked spec so new flags match the ones already flying.
- 1
Common sportfishing sizes
From small boat flags around 12"×18" up to larger tournament and capture formats around 16"×24" (representative sizes — final built to your spec and confirmed on the sample), so release pennants, species and capture flags all sit right on the rig.
- 2
Shapes to match the signal
Rectangular flags for species and capture, swallowtail and pennant cuts for release and burgees — the shape itself is part of how a signal reads at a distance.
- 3
Headings that fit your gear
Choose a brass-grommet header, a rope-and-toggle heading or a pole sleeve, spec'd to clip to your outrigger halyard, a flag line or a pole — so the flag mounts on the gear you already run.
- 4
Build the set, then reorder to match
Spread one minimum across the flags your program flies — from 100 pcs per style, mixed across species, release, capture and formats — so a first order is a real working set, not a hundred of one flag. Your artwork, sizing and heading spec are logged so a repeat matches the rig already flying — and you can get a quote with your set and sizes spec'd up front.
Who We Supply
The boats, brands and programs we build fishing flags for.
Different buyers, different signals, different identity rules — same outdoor bunting and the same in-house sewing and print. What changes per account is which flags and which branding we structure the order around, not the weather standard we hold.
Tackle & Marine Brands
Our handlingAdding a branded flag line to a gear range — dye-sublimated species and release flags packaged and barcoded to your SKUs, so the line drops onto the peg beside your other fishing accessories, and made-to-order for marine brands that ship finished goods.
Charter Fleets & Guides
Our handlingFleet flags and species sets that match across every boat — one artwork and heading spec with a low mid-season top-up, so a new boat's flags match the run. See charter fleet uniforms for matching crew kit.
Tournaments & Clubs
Our handlingEvent, line-class and capture/release flags on a fixed date — a matched capture-and-release set plus event and line-class flags built to the tournament's convention, so scoring reads clean across the fleet.
Tag-and-Release & Conservation Programs
Our handlingOrganizations flagging tagged fish for science — a distinct tag-and-release T-flag kept visually separate from a plain release, produced as a consistent program set year over year.
Retail & Wholesale Distributors
Our handlingBuying flag assortments to resell — a mixed assortment across species, release and capture flags, packed and labeled for retail so it's ready to sell on arrival.
The Factory Standard
A fishing-apparel factory that builds flags to a weather standard.
Cutting, sewing, dye-sublimation and inspection run under one roof — the same platform that builds our technical apparel — which is why a flag program stays consistent from the sample to the five-hundredth flag and from the first order to the reorder. Here's the standard behind it (factory-stated).
Weather-fastness, verified before bulk
UV/light color hold, fly-end stitch strength after repeated wind-snap cycles, and colorfastness after salt rinse are checked in-house against representative targets, so a durability claim on a flag is tested, not assumed.
Consistency logged to your style
Artwork, sizing, heading and dye recipe are reserved and logged, so flag five hundred matches flag one — the reason a mid-season top-up still matches the flags already on the rig.
The whole set on one platform
Species, release, capture and burgee builds all cut, sewn and printed on the same fabric technology and sewing floor, so a mixed set arrives as one consistent family instead of five sourced looks.
Decorated and inspected in-house
Dye-sublimation, appliqué and sewn construction plus a pre-shipment AQL 2.5 check with a photo report all happen on our floor, so branding and durability aren't handed to an outside workshop. See our quality & workmanship standard.
