Accessible from historic downtown Branson, the Branson Landing and at multiple points east including the communities of Rockaway Beach, Forsyth and Powersite and south of Hwy. 76 in Hollister and the Fall Creek area, Lake Taneycomo was formed with the completion of Powersite Dam in 1913. It was originally section of the White River, and although Taneycomo is now technically a lake, it retains the look and feel of a river. When the Table Rock Dam was completed at Taneycomo's headwaters in 1958, the nature of the lake changed. Taneycomo's water now comes from the bottom of Table Rock Lake, making it a cold water lake.

Lake Taneycomo Fishing
The cold, clear water, stocked annually with approximately 750,000 10-12" rainbow trout, makes Taneycomo a world-class trout fishing lake year round. The cold, clear water combined with the Shepherd of the hills trout hatchery has made it the perfect spot for rainbow and german brown trout. About 80% of the 1,200,000 trout raised at the hatchery each year are released into Taneycomo. The upper end (restricted area) of the lake offers superb spin fishing and fly fishing for both quality and quanity of trout while the rest of the lake offers superb lure and baitfishing for numbers of fish. There is an artificial only regulation as well as a slot limit in the restricted area, but the rest of the lake has no length or lure restrictions, but is under state wide regulations.
