Captain Aaron was born here in the panhandle and loves fishing the Gulf waters. Whether fishing inshore for trout and redfish or offshore for red snapper I love sharing this experience with others, and always thrilled to see his customers' faces light up when they catch Big fish. It makes our job all the more fun and worth every moment spent on the water.

    Awesome trip right after the storm!

    4 Hour Trip — Red Snapper (AM) • 4 adults • 1 child

    This was Cap’n Aaron’s first trip out after the hurricane. He took us out to the old reliables, but the fish were no where to be found! Not to be outdone by the fish, he motored out to some places farther out to find where the catch was hiding out after the storm. Bingo! There they were! We caught our limit of red snappers, a triggerfish, and a couple of big amberjack and red grouper, that were released. Cap’n Aaron uses real, live bait that he caught early in the morning! Remember better bait, better fish! No frozen or dead bait was used, only live bait fish!

    great trip

    4 Hour Trip — Red Snapper (AM) • 2 adults • 1 child

    Aaron was fantastic! He is a very energetic captain, always smiling and looking for a good time. He cares about safety and told us right away the gulf had waves and we might ot stay long or fish. We got to the 1st spot and showed us how to drop line, what the fish were looking for and explained the fish! It was not 5 min and my son had his 1st fish. Aaron was so excited it showed his love and passion for fishing. we eed up catching 4 fish at the 1st spot before I had to tell him I wasnt feeling good. He cared and you could tell. We started to try thr 2nd location but the waves were a bit rough. for my liking. We will for sure be back and use Aaron exclusively. Thanks for the great memories!

    Truly a great adventure!

    5 Hour Trip — Inshore (AM) • 2 adults

    Captain Aaron is one of those people you meet and feels like you just reunited with an old friend. Even though he called the night before our morning trip and said the weather was not cooperating with an offshore trip, he offered to adjust our trip for an inshore. I was bumbed we were going to miss a chance at some red snapper... However we had a BLAST catching Spotted Sea Trout! Captain Aaron got us on fish within 10 minutes of getting on the boat. My 17 year old son and I caught our bag limit by 7:35 (we left at 6:30). So Captain Aaron said I like competition so lets make y'all work for a catch. We started hitting some bigger trout and even a Flounder. Captain Aaron truly made us feel like we were the only ones on the water! My son caught a 27 inch spotted sea trout and Captain Aaron was just as excited as he was in hooking the monster. If you are looking for a family friendly guide or an old friend to fish with, Captain Aaron is the guide for you! I booked not knowing what to expect and left with a new friend I trust to take out any of my friends and family. He treated us well, taught us how to catch big ones, and never made us feel dumb if we snagged. Overall Captain Aaron is the best choice for anyone looking for a good, relaxing, friendly competitive, knowledgeable guide. I will absolutely be booking with Salty Style again!! Thanks again Captain Aaron!

    Super fun !

    4 Hour Trip — Inshore (AM) • 5 adults • 2 children

    We had a little bit of bad weather rolling early in the morning. The captain was super good at communicating that there would be a slight delay in getting started while we waited for the storm blew over. He also didn’t cut our trip short because we got started late. We hit our limit. We were all tired and ready to go. My brother-in-law and I brought our sons who are 7 and 9.. they loved it! Super friendly and understanding with kids. Let kids use nets to grab fish. Caught a ton of fish! Great experience ! Thanks captain Aaron!

    we had a blast!!!

    4 Hour Trip — Inshore (AM) • 6 adults • 1 child

    my dad and I go fishing once a year on the big fishing boats with a ton of people. I wanted to do something special for my dad and got us a private boat. I am so glad that we ended up with Captain Aaron. We had a blast. He was super knowledgeable about the area and took us to his hidden spots. He taught us how to fish with the inland fish. we had a blast reeling in the big fish. I would highly recommend Captain Aaron. Already planning on next years teio.

What's biting with Salt Style Guide Service in Orange Beach

Bottom fish continue to bite along the reefs, even though the weather is changing, while Trout and Redfish are the inshore stars. There are plenty of guides ready to take you out, so what are you waiting for?
