28 West Palm Beach Fishing Club Always a popular drifting spot where large schools of bonitos congregate in the spring and summer months. When the current is running hard to the north the ledge almost appears to be boiling from the upwellings. When the water is cobalt blue schools of flying fish, blue runners and bonito can be found here, which attract blackfin tuna, dolphin, sailfish, wahoo, sharks and even marlin. Also a common place to find king- fish and mutton snapper throughout the year. The High Bar, located northeast of the Juno Pier, runs from Juno to Jupiter and is a very productive spot for yel- lowtail snapper and a variety of other reef fish. The top of the reef is around 60 feet and the bottom of the reef lies in about 80 feet. The bigger yellowtails usually suspend higher in the water column over the reef. When the current slows down during the fall season it allows drift fishing anglers to hold bottom easier along the edge of the reef. Often times bottom fish will get pushed into this reef in the months following a busy hurricane season. Good numbers of red grouper sometimes show up following the storms. In 2007 the WPBFC, in partnership with Palm Beach County, sunk this 265-foot long ship in approximately 220 feet of water 2.5 miles northeast of Palm Beach Inlet. The reef was created to honor prominent boat builder and past WPBFC President John Rybovich. This reef is a fishy spot and has saved many a day for local charter boats when the sailfish are not in a cooperative mood. Amber- jacks, sharks and blackfin tuna are frequently caught by those dropping metal speed jigs or live baits into the water column above the vessel. The current is strong here, so be sure to set up well up-current of your target. On days when there is little to no current or a south current this is a good place to look for deep water muttons and grouper. There is a wide variety of low profile rocks and construc- tion debris located in this general area in 110’ to 130’ feet of water northeast of the Palm Beach Inlet. You will find scattered material in the surrounding area as well. This is a favored bot- tom fishing spot for snapper, African pompano and cobia. Schools of huge jack crevalle are sometimes encountered here. Some of the best times to fish this spot are the peri- ods following a large north- east swell.
