Fishing near Lorton, Virginia

You will find Lorton in Fairfax County, Virginia. Water lies on more than one side of the place. The near ones first: Massey Creek out at 3.2 miles, Huntsman Lake out at 3.9 miles to the north-west, Lake Omiscol out at 4.5 miles plus Occoquan Reservoir out at 4.8 miles to the west. Occoquan Reservoir drops its level through a dry spell, so follow the water down. Few areas offer this much variety so close together. Overhanging trees hold fish through the middle of the day. The bank is open in every month. Winter here means a jacket, not a hole in the lid. Closest is Massey Creek at around 53 acres of water. Massey Creek has a mapped boat ramp, which makes it the practical choice for a boat. County records name blueback herring, alewife, bluegill, redbreast sunfish and green sunfish among the fish present. Start with Massey Creek and work down the list as the season goes on....
