Lake Information for Patoka Lake
Patoka Lake is an 8,800 acre flood control impoundment in south-central Indiana located in Dubois, Orange and Crawford counties. The lake was created by damming the Patoka River. The dam is located about 118.3 miles (190 km) above the mouth of the Patoka River. The lake is fed by several smaller tributaries including Allen Creek, Paint Creek, and Ritter Creek.
The lake has been heavily stocked with bass, bluegill, catfish, redear, crappie, and walleye. Once a year the Lake association hosts GarDaze, an event bringing in avid fisherman from around the world, including fishing celebrities like Babe Winkleman and Bill Dance.
