Lake Wood was a reservoir on the Guadalupe River west of the town of Gonzales in Gonzales County, Texas. The reservoir was formed in 1931 by the construction of a dam to provide hydroelectric power to the area. Lake Wood served as a venue for outdoor recreation, including fishing and boating.
Lake Wood was stocked with species of fish intended to improve the utility of the reservoir for recreational fishing. Fish that were present in Lake Wood include catfish, white crappie, sunfish, and largemouth bass.
