Lakes in West Central Louisiana

I'm about done at Ft. Lewis (a little south of Seattle) and will be moving to Ft. Polk in west central louisiana for a couple of years. I will miss having my boat in a slip 5 minutes from home and work.

That being said, anybody ride out there? Looking on the maps and different sites, it seems that there are some possibilities on Lake Vernon and Anacocco as long as you stay away from the stumps. Looks like there are a few within an hrs drive as well that are a little less stumpy.

Sooooo, is there anybody who has ridden on Lake Vernon and Anacocco? If so, how were they? Any other recommendations?

Thanks
