Hello,
I want to go to Fort Bragg this summer and camp for a couple days. Somewhere where we can use a tent and be near the ocean and forest (if that is possible). Would like to catch fish and crab for dinner. Looking to hike in the forest and just relax.

Any camp areas come to mind? Sorry i now it's not much details but i'm simple, just want to be neat the water.

Check the state park reviews. I think yelp has reviews and some are great but a couple are iffy.
I think the one right near Ft. Bragg had some iffy reviews. But Van Damme, just south of Mendocino Village, is great. It's about 10 miles south of Ft. Bragg, but across the street from the beach. There are a couple right on the beach, I believe, too. Van Damme is gorgeous redwoods and a creek. Amazing spot to camp, though of course others will be camping with you, esp. on the weekends.
Or you can go private vs. state park (state park is $25/night, 14 night maximum in a row, usually):
Mendocino Campgrounds & RV Parks in Fort Bragg, Mendocino Coast CA
Google is your friend! Check reviews and you can probably find additional listings to the above. 'Camping Mendocino' is the search phrase I used.
Beautiful area there; you'll love it!

Also, for fishing, just google it and find the best spots or maybe you'll find a company that takes people out in small groups.

This place was fantastic last time I went--- It's right next to the beach yet in the forest also.
