Lake Wilson, Stausee im US-Bundesstaat Hawaii
Lake Wilson is a large reservoir close to the town of Wilson, covering over 320 acres of water and surrounding land. Two main trails loop around the lake with mostly flat terrain, the inner trail measuring about 1.3 miles and the outer trail about 1.8 miles, with one section featuring a gentle hill and a bridge that crosses the water.
The site began as a state-managed reservoir serving the area, and the adjacent Wahiawā State Freshwater Park was developed to support public fishing and outdoor recreation. The facility has long provided the local community with resources for outdoor activities.
The reservoir is also known as Wahiawā Reservoir and serves as a familiar gathering spot for locals and visitors seeking outdoor recreation. People come here to fish, walk along the trails, and spend time in nature with family and friends.
Visitors should know that fishing requires a valid license, approved life jackets are mandatory when on boats, and boats cannot exceed 18 feet or go faster than 5 miles per hour. The parking areas near the dam provide easy access to the trails and boat ramp.
Certain fish species like bass and tucunare must be released immediately after being caught, while oscar fish are limited to one per person per day and are popular among anglers visiting the lake. These rules help maintain the fish population and keep the ecosystem healthy.
