Lake Taneycomo is a man-made reservoir created by the construction of Ozark Beach Dam in Missouri. The lake spans about 22 miles and is known for its clear and cold waters, making it a popular spot for trout fishing. The lake was created by the White River Basin development project in 1913 to control flooding and provide hydroelectric power. The lake is fed by several surface flow providers and snowpack, including the James River and Table Rock Lake. The lake also serves as a source of water for agricultural irrigation and recreational activities such as boating, kayaking, and camping. Overall, Lake Taneycomo is an important resource for both the local community and visitors alike.
