I have a friend who will be spending the winter in Rockport, TX a bit East of Corpus Christi. Any decent collecting sites an easy day trip from there?

Arlen tell him to hound the landscaping. There is a bunch of colorful flint, chert and jasper in that area! Also pet wood and palm. Corpus Christi lake when low is good too. Theoretically you can't hound the State Park but I always have.

He is always coming to my shop to show me something he has found.

Lots of agate and pet wood along the oilfield roads NW of George West Texas which is an easy trip NW of Rockport. Draw a triangle from Three Rivers to Simmons City to George West. Any gravel road in that triangle can be good. And yep, Rio Grande gravel is a common landscape rock all over central Texas....Mel
