I have been hassled after dark more than once there.Both times I was told by a cop I needed a permit.I was just glad to get out without a ticket.

Why not just post the specific rules right at the park.Closed sunset to sunrise is a little vague.

As far as I know it's always been an unwritten rule that as long as you are fishing it's OK to park there after dark.

You might try rolling in at sunset so the rangers see you arrive and hopefully they'll start recognizing your vehicle.

Also, even though it's not necessary I make sure my Newport Fishing Permit is visible.
