Anyone near Jupiter

Greno · #1 06-16-2010, 01:54 PM

Coming to the MIL and bringing the 18 down in July. I have only fished once down there and that was 7 or 8 years ago. I remember it being slick everytime we visit in the summer so I am very excited since we are shut down here. Any suggestions? Places to park boat on trailer (HOA will not allow it at her place)? Good places to launch? I know the ramps on Blue Heron under the bridge and I don't know where any are near Jupiter Inlet? Any help appreciated.

We used Burt Reynolds park landing. You might ask Mark (I think) at Pa-Ja Villas about parking. BR ramp is maybe 10 minutes from the Inlet with the no wakes.

GRENO-

Go to Loggerhead Marina in Palm Beach Gardens, right under the Donald Ross bridge. They have a gated, lot with a washdown area where you can park your trailered boat for $100/month. There is a ramp down the street at Bert Winters park or you can head north along the same road that runs parallel to the ICW and you can launch in Jupiter, near the inlet. I would say Jupiter Inlet is maybe 3 or 4 miles from teh Donald Ross bridge.

Have fun.

Jupiter Inlet is not too far from Palm Beach Gardens, but as posted earlier, BR Park is the closest. It will save at least 20 min by boat

Thanks for the responses. The reality of trying to pull the 650 trailer trip is hitting home. It will take an extra 3 tanks of gas in the truck, nowhere cheap to keep/launch the boat, and the hassle of the trip with just the wife and kids, i.e. no help if I lose a hub. Anyone got any decent info on walk on's or cheap charters. I have never stayed down south for this long and honestly don't want to spend a week working on my Mother in Law's house (which is what usually happens).

Thanks.

Especially if she's home
