We've done it both ways and also calculated the gas. On a beautiful day with great conditions, I prefer the boat ride. Too much chop, too hot, or risk of t-storms, I prefer the ride in the SUV the the shorter boat run back to the ramp if t-storms appear in the distance. My kids prefer the car ride most days. The car ride beats the boat ride regarding gas with most boat and towing vehicle combinations. Also, I've never seen a line at the Cameron boat ramp.

Finally, I like fishing the jetties from mid afternoon until the sunset. The ride back to the ramp at dusk is much better than the ride back to Calc Point in the dark.
