High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Kentucky Lake is a major navigable reservoir along the Tennessee River in Kentucky and Tennessee. Created in 1944 by the Tennessee Valley Authority's impounding of the Tennessee River by Kentucky Dam, the 160,309-acre lake is the largest artificial lake by surface area in the United States east of the Mississippi River. It provides a source for hydro-electric power and, as one of the lakes alluded to by the name of Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area, is a recreational magnet in western Kentucky and Tennessee. On November 15, 2005, an F3 tornado hit the area killing 1 person, injuring 10, destroyed 19 buildings and damaged 120 others. The lake holds records for the largest of three species of fish ever taken in Kentucky: white bass, Buffalo carp, and yellow perch. It is also the major attraction for two Kentucky state parks: Kentucky Dam Village State Resort Park to the north and Kenlake State Resort Park to the west.
