    LAKE MANASSAS

    Used to murder LMG and smallies and few walleye there back in the day. Are they ever going to open it back up? I think I have the lake record 8.0 Largemouth caught March 15 and 6.6 smallie caught in August. I bet that place is loaded right now. Anybody ever night fish it? They used to run a full moon tournament in the summer till midnight and that was awesome.

    Lake has been closed to the public for over 20 years

    It's loaded with 4-6 pound fish. Have had 2 walleye in the boat off the same spot one was 7.5 pounds and the other pushing 7. Great place to go, but you run the risk of getting caught. Also, the crappie population is insane. We have caught several pushing 3 pounds and 1 at 3.5

    It is the biggest scam in fishing to close that lake to fishing. Build a presidential golf coarse around it and all of a sudden the city of manassas claims every excuse to keep fisherman off the water. It was fine for years as a trolling motor only lake.
