The conditions of the roads in and around the greater Saline/Larto complex is more than disappointing. It's one of the main reasons I don't fish it as much as I'd like. I've always launched at Phil's landing off Cross bayou and seems like I have to fix something on my trailer or boat after every trip.

Not all PTA's are the same. Family member had the exact same issue, went to one PTA who couldn't do it and then another that had him in and out in 15 minutes. He did however just pay the fine instead of trying to rectify the situation.
Thanks for the update.
I really hate to hear that. Any word on arrangements? I've been looking but haven't found an obituary yet.
Indian Creek falls within the Alexander State Forest WMA so that's where you need to look for regs. You can't set up on the recreation area so be sure to check the map and know the boundaries.
If you are going to the DMV just bring your cards and ask them to add the endorsements. They will want to make copies of the cards. I got my lifetime license, hunter education, and boater education added, all of which show up on my LA Wallet app now. I got the app after adding my stuff so I'm not sure if the app just has that information already through the state or if it's because I added it at the DMV.

So you peaked my curiosity about this trailer, Google says it's somewhere between 2800 and 3600 so that plus horses.

It's an aluminum 3 horse bumper pull trailer loaded with 3 horses and tack. I've looked a few times for the trailers weight and never found an exact number but the horses and tack are probably 2000-2500lb.s so that plusses the trailer.

They're set up for fuel economy (small engines) with enough capability for light duty towing.
This is exactly why I got mine. Fuel economy for my weekday commute and the capability of weekend towing.
I have a 2018 ecodiesel. I've had one issue with the engine but it was related to a recall that I had just received the notice for a week prior to the truck acting up. I also had an issue with my touch screen bubbling causing it to go crazy with ghost touches, luckily the warranty covered that.
As far as fuel mileage goes I average 23 MPG on the interstate and 26-27 on the hwy. We also pull a 3 horse bumper pull loaded down fairly often and it handles the load very well.

Warm
Perfect wind
Ladder stand on edge of bedding.
Seen 1 cross at 140 yards earlier.
Going to pull cards after this and make a game plan for next week after the cold front moves in.
P.S.A.
All you Baws heading to your camps today need to be stocking up on mosquito dope like its toilet paper in March of 2020. The mosquitoes are thick!!

Remington ammo in Arkansas back up and running 24/7

Big Green Is Back: Remington Ammo Plant Working 24/7
by American Rifleman Staff - Monday, April 12, 2021
Remington Ammunition is back in operation, and its new president, Jason Vanderbrink, addresses consumers straight from the factory floor in his latest "Where's the Ammo?" video above.
"Today, we're in our American manufacturing facility in Lonoke, Ark.," Vanderbrink said. "You'll see that Big Green is back and stronger than ever."
Following Remington Outdoors' bankruptcy in 2020, Vista Outdoor, parent company of Federal Premium, purchased the Remington ammunition facility in Arkansas, along with most of Remington's trademarks. Immediately following the acquisition, Vista sent a number of experienced managers down to the Lonoke facility to get production back on track.
The lack of consistent production at the Remington ammo plant is considered one of the elements in the perfect storm of supply chain issues that have plagued the ammo market through 2020 and into 2021.
"You know what? I am sick and tired of not being able to find Remington ammunition on the shelves," he said. "We are fixing that. American manufacturing is about to roar, and Remington ammunition is back."
Remington, one of the largest ammunition facilities in the United States, had difficulty obtaining the raw materials needed to fill its capacity. As a result, employees were laid off, machines were idled, all while domestic ammunition demand reached unprecedented heights. With Vista Outdoor's management, production is flowing.
"Our workforce is doing fantastic, and our raw material suppliers have really come through, so now, Remington's going 24/7, and everyone will get to enjoy the quality ammunition that Lonoke, Ark. makes," Vanderbrink said.
Now under competent management, the Remington plant has a bright future ahead, and consumers can take a look at what's rolling out from the factory at Remington Ammunition's new website. As production ramps up, Vanderbrink highlighted the primary focus of the plant's new management.
"It took 205 years to build this brand, and we will never, ever sacrifice quality," he added.

Check out Door County Wisconsin. Lots of fishing charters in the area for either Lake Michigan or Green Bay. There's also some really good parks and beaches. If you go around when the cherries will be ripe you can pick them at different orchards. There's also some good golf courses if that's your thing.
I've been there multiple times with family and we've done things like:
Charter fishing
Para-sailing
Segway tours
Sail boat day cruise
Mini golf
Hiking trails
Kayaking
It's a nice place but it can be a little tourist trappy around the small towns.

Chicot does have boat rentals.
You may want to look at South Toledo Bend S.P. because Chicot is not exactly close to DeRidder. Looks like they have cabins and boat rentals as well.
