    Fishing at Fort Pillow

    Sullivan’s Pond, a 25-acre lake located within the park, is stocked with bass, bream and crappie each year in June.

    Fish length and creel limits are listed in the TWRA Fishing Guide under Sulllivan's Pond. Fishing is good from the bank. Trailered boats can be launched into Sullivan's Pond at the park’s public boat launch ramp.
