Lake Gilead is part of the Croton Watershed of the New York City water supply system.[4][5] A dam and spillway are located on its southern end, with a 500' shore-to-shore set-back restricting boaters from the spillway area.[1]
Recreational use of the controlled lakes falls under DEP regulations. Fishing and self-powered boating are allowed with a valid DEP permit and New York State Department of Environmental Conservation-issued fishing license. Swimming is prohibited.
Ice fishing is allowed on Lake Gilead during the winter.[4] Fish species present include (but are not limited to) largemouth bass, rainbow, lake and brown trout, chain pickerel, yellow perch, and panfish. In the 1990s a local fisherman illegally introduced northern pike, though they are rarely caught.
