Was thinking about taking the kayak for some night fishing around the Rockport area. I hear Key Allegro is a good spot to hit the dock lights in the canals for trout. Is this true? Also, where is a good launch spot for a kayak to access Key Allegro and is it legal to fishing near someone's dock? I dont want to upset any one out there.

They own the dock not the water

Week nights would probably be better than week end nights. Fewer people, fewer boats, and the residents tend to be lower key than the weekenders. I try not to fish on the weekends, unless my boys are home and want to go.

drive down the rockport beach to the very end and you can launch it right next to the water. you will be close to the canals there.

I see there is a kayak launch on Maple St in Rockport that is close to Key Allegro. Does anyone know if its ok to park there at night?

I don't fish the lights anymore, mainly because I have my own. But when I did, I have had people yell obscenities at me. One guy even called the game warden. That was a good one. Here's what happened. I went during the day with a large treble hook trying to find a rod my ex-son-in-law had dropped the night before. The home owner was sitting on his porch. I asked him where the light was and he made some comment about getting electrocuted. I explained that I didn't want to be over his light because we had dropped the rod away from the light. I asked him what the depth was in that area and he said "deep enough for you to drown."

Without his cooperation, I kept dragging for the lost rod. All of a sudden, the game warden shows up, but he didn't talk to me. He went straight to talk to the home owner. They talked for a while and occasionally pointed in my direction. After a while, the game warden starts to leave and he says hi to me. I stopped him and told him what happened and how the home owner was being rude. He asked please not to be rude to him in return. He said the homeowner did complain about me, but that he had no right to complain because his light was more than 10' from his dock! Wow, I didn't know that. He told me to continue with what I was doing.

I continued to look, but didn't find the rod. As I left, I polity waved good bye to the home owner. Boy, if looks could kill.......
