Fishing Pier Renovations at Sharp Springs Park

TWRA has completed the replacement of two of four fishing piers located on catch-and-release ponds within Sharp Springs Natural Area.

Sharp Springs Natural Area, the largest park in the Smyrna Park System, encompasses approximately 360 acres and is leased from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The park offers excellent opportunities for families to enjoy the outdoors, including accessible fishing areas for anglers of all ages.

The newly installed piers replace structures originally built by TWRA more than a decade ago. The project cost was approximately $4,000 and is part of TWRA’s ongoing commitment to improving public access and enhancing recreational fishing experiences.

The City of Smyrna and TWRA will evaluate the remaining two fishing piers to determine repair or replacement. These improvements aim to provide a safer, more enjoyable fishing experience while encouraging families and communities to connect with Tennessee’s natural resources.
