**Access Details**
Earl Gilbert Landing is a public boat ramp providing free access to Blue Lake in Chipley, Florida. The concrete ramp is 16 feet wide with a maximum depth of 10 feet, making it suitable for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. This quarter-acre site includes a single bench for rest but offers very limited parking, so arrive early during peak times.
**What to Expect**
Blue Lake is a small, scenic lake popular with anglers targeting largemouth bass, perch, and trout. The landing's compact size and modest amenities make it best suited for day-use paddlers and boaters launching smaller craft. The limited parking and facilities mean this is ideal for quick launches rather than extended day trips with large groups. Bring your own supplies and plan accordingly, as amenities are minimal.
