The Party Grounds are a broad area of natural ledges that are a few feet shallower then their surrounding waters. The points listed below are boundary points not marked ledges. These point create a polygon that surrounds the reef area. Most boaters use their sonar to locate the ledges and bait that surrounding them. Then mark areas that are productive. The depth at the Party Grounds is from 80' to 100' and most of the ledges are 2' to 4'.
