TWRA Region 2 The TWRA fisheries crew has built several piers during the last few years to give anglers more bank access. These piers are at a small lake near Percy Priest Lake in Smyrna. The name of the park is Sharps Spring. It is also stocked with catfish. The agency is willing to apply labor and help build piers on public lakes if local cities are willing to share cost projects. Contact TWRA's Region II Office at 781-6624 and ask for Todd St. John.Bank Access Good On Priest, Old Hickory, Especially With Fishing Piers, PlatformsMiddle Tennessee anglers have more choices than they may realize to fish around excellent structures that attract many of our favorite game fish such as bass, crappie, and bluegill.
