can anyone direct me to a family friendly campground with good fishing in northern arkansas or southern missouri. we plan on going fathers day weekend.

Try the Outdoor Resorts in Blue Eye, AR. It is a beautiful resort, reasonably priced, and right on table rock lake with outstanding fishing. You did not say what type of rig you have, but they don't accept tents, but do accept motorhomes, travel trailers, and fifth wheelers.

There are also several Corp Of Engineer camp grounds at both BullShoals and Table Rock.
