Camping (with hiking and fishing) ideas?

Me and a few buddies are looking to go on a weekend camping trip soon, (February) and were thinking of heading to Clark Creek (near Angola/Tunica with the waterfalls) and camping near the Miss if possible so we could try to grab some fish as well.
Researched it a bit and it says you can't camp there/aren't any tent spots there.. Anyone know of any? Or something else within maybe 5-6 hours of driving that fits that.
Thanks in Advance fellas.

Hot Springs. Camp and fish the Ouchita. Lotsa of trails around HS and Ouchita. What kinda fishing? Distance of hikes and difficulty?

Chicot State Park. There are sand boxes for the tents.

I would recommend Indian Creek reservoir near alexandria...it is a nice camping area on a reservoir all surrounded by the state forest...only a few hours from NO and close to Alexandria in case you need anything...
I have spent a lot of time there and it is an enjoyable place to camp...

Lake Kincaid to the west of Alexandria. 30 miles of trails from your tent pad which includes wild azaela. Could fish kincaid and valentine where that 15+ pound bass was caught last year.

The Wild Azeal Trail also crosses along Lake Kincaid. Nice lake with a campground along it. Not sure of how the fishing is.
quote:
The Wild Azalea Trail carries the honor of being the longest hiking trail in the state. It runs from the town of Woodward to Lake Valentine. Along the trail you will pass through a variety of ecosystems. Parts of the trail are lower with hardwoods and lazy creeks creating a beautiful backdrop to your hike or mountain bike ride. Other parts are higher and hillier with the Longleaf Pines gracing your path. At 28 miles in length, the WAT (Wild Azalea Trail) can be traversed in as little as a single day for the ambitious or a multi day backpacking trip for those that want to take their time. The trail is usable all year – but the best times are from October through May when the weather is cooler. March and April are the best times to spot the Wild Azaleas for which the trail is named. The trail route is conspicuously marked with bright yellow paint blazes, and is sign at road crossings.

Chicot Lake SP has great hiking, fishing, and is closed to hunting. They have some fantastic primitive tent camping spots that require a hike in. They are typically on the ends of points in the lake. You'd have to pack everything in. Alternatively, you could rent a cabin and do the hiking and fishing comfortably.
