Hey Aaron, Garry is giving you great advice. Overcome that shyness that you mention the worse that could happen is they say no. Its their right, they may have had a bad experience with others or have insurance issues. When you get that yes, don't leave ANYTHING behind and if you don't have any fish to offer them just thank them again and let them know you are leaving.

I am very shy just like you . By Google map , I found a spot of a creek i 'd like to fish with my Kayak . There are 2 boat ramps but they are too far from the spot , but then I found a private lot next to the water , near the spot . It took me a long time but finally I decided to come and ask the owner , who happens to mow the grass for permission to launch the kayak , I thought the worse think is he says No . But to my surprise , he say yes and very friendly . I am so lucky .
