Meet Our Captain

Introducing Captain Aaron Finkley: The Heart of Sweet Jody

Every great fishing adventure starts with a great captain, and Sweet Jody is lucky to have one of the best—Captain Aaron Finkley. Born and raised in Destin, Florida, Aaron’s life has revolved around fishing and the Gulf of Mexico. Growing up in the "World’s Luckiest Fishing Village," he spent his childhood chasing fish, sunsets, and dreams. Fishing wasn’t just a hobby for Aaron—it was a way of life.

Aaron began his career on the deck of a fishing boat a decade ago, learning the ins and outs of the trade from some of the best captains in the business. From baiting hooks to reading the waters, he soaked up every bit of knowledge like a sponge. After years of hard work, dedication, and a few inevitable missteps (including more hooks in his hand than he cares to count), Aaron earned his spot in the wheelhouse five years ago.

Today, Captain Aaron Finkley is at the helm of Sweet Jody, combining his passion for fishing with his love for entertaining guests. For Aaron, every day on the water is an adventure—a chance to share his knowledge, swap stories, and help guests create memories that will last a lifetime.
