Lake White was impounded in 1935 by the damming of Pee Pee Creek. State Route 104 serves as the dam. The dam was constructed by the then State Department of Highways under the Highway and Dam Act. The area surrounding Lake White consists of forested, rugged hills. Lake White is part of the Lake White State Park. Most of the land surrounding Lake White is privately owned.

Fishing Description: 

Lake White has populations of largemouth bass and spotted bass with spotted bass being the most abundant of the two species. Saugeye fingerlings are stocked annually, channel catfish yearlings are stocked every other year. Sunfish are numerous with bluegill the most dominant sunfish species. Crappie are also present offering an additional opportunity for anglers.

Fishing Tips, Tactics, How-To info: 

Largemouth bass can be caught casting the shoreline, paying particular attention to visible structure. Artificial lures such as rubber worms, spinner baits, and crankbaits work well. The rip-rap face of the dam and boat docks are also good areas to try.

Sunfish can be caught throughout the lake using live bait such as wax worms or redworms.

Crappie are taken usually with minnows and a bobber. Look for stumps or brushpiles, that act as attractors for crappie and other sportfish.

Channel catfish can be caught fishing on the bottom with chicken liver or night crawlers. Night fishing for catfish is a popular method for catfish anglers.

Twister tail jigs tipped with a minnow or piece of night crawler are effective for saugeye.
