Nestled amidst the picturesque pine forests of the Caney Creek Wildlife Management Area, this reservoir offers anglers a serene and tranquil fishing experience.

One of the primary draws of Caney Creek Reservoir is its excellent largemouth bass fishing. Anglers from all around the region visit the lake in pursuit of trophy-sized bass, as the lake boasts a healthy population of these prized gamefish.

In the spring and fall, Caney Lake is a lunker bass factory. The 15.97-pound lunker caught by Greg Wiggins in Caney in February 1994 still stands as the lake record. But hardly a month goes by that somebody doesn’t bring a bass to the scales that tops the 10-12 pound mark. In fact, six of the top ten largemouth bass records—all over 15 pounds—that have been caught in Louisiana came from this small impoundment formed by damming Caney Creek in 1986.

Lake D'Arbonne was constructed in the early 1960's when the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development constructed a dam and spillway across Bayou D'Arbonne. 

Recreation on Lake D'Arbonne is tremendously popular among locals and visitors, and record freshwater catches of bass, crappie, catfish and bream make Lake D'Arbonne a fishing haven. Wide open areas of the lake, about seven miles from the park, appeal to water skiers and pleasure boaters. The boat launch at the park opens up all of these opportunities to outdoorsmen.

Lake D’Arbonne is a reservoir located in Union Parish in north Louisiana. Isolated in a rural area, it is a popular man-made fishing area that has a combined estimated area of 15,250 acres.
