Evidence suggested that spawning took place in all tributaries of the lake but not in the lake itself. White suckers begain to mature at age 3 and at a length of 275 mm. …

Early-Life History of the White Sucker (Catostomus Commersoni) in Lake Taneycomo, Missouri
White suckers (Catostomus commersoni) were monitored during the 1994 and 1995 spawning periods to determine location and timing of reproduction, dispersal of larvae, and growth of sub-adult fish. Daily aging by the use of otoliths from lab reared white sucker larvae was validated to 28 days. …
