Entering the river from  Intracoastal waterway at the Jupiter Inlet you will pass under the A1A and railroad bridges to run the shallow channel up the NW fork past the many mangrove lined island and cuts along the way. The river is dotted with big money homes all the way to the entrance of Jonathan Dickinson State Park. In the 1960's the river was desolate with only a few homes sprinkled amongst the deep Pine and Scrub Palm forest. Even now with an overgrowth of docks and boat lifts the river is still a great diverse fishery. Snook, Tarpon are the main targets but if you travel far enough up the river you will even catch Bass and Gar. Navigation is hazardous due to the many sandbars and oyster piles.
