Pickwick Lake, Reservoir on Tennessee River in Tennessee, US
Pickwick Lake encompasses 43,000 acres of water surface with an average depth of 30 feet and multiple access points along its extensive shoreline.
The Tennessee Valley Authority constructed Pickwick Lake during the 1930s to improve river navigation and generate hydroelectric power for the surrounding region.
Regular fishing tournaments bring together anglers from across the region to compete for catching largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, catfish, and crappie.
Multiple marinas, boat ramps, and camping facilities line the shores of Pickwick Lake, providing essential services and equipment rentals for water activities.
The reservoir forms the northern terminus of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway, creating a direct water route from Tennessee to the Gulf of Mexico.
