Caney Bayou is an important and continual fishery during the springtime. It has been used extensively for educational purposes in the Aquaculture/Fisheries, and Biology Department at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff (UAPB). This stream flows around the new UAPB football stadium. Due to the construction of the stadium several locations along the stream have been very susceptible to bank erosion. This is a serious issue that has ultimately affected both the long-term stability of portions of the stadium and the natural fauna and flora in and around Caney Bayou.
