Lake Information for Massabesic Lake
Massabesic Lake is a lake in southern New Hampshire, United States, covering about 2,561 acres within the city of Manchester and the town of Auburn. Because it provides drinking water for Manchester, swimming and water skiing are not allowed there. However, fishing and boating are popular.
Besides flowing into the Manchester water system, the lake's water feeds Cohas Brook, leading to the Merrimack River. Massabesic is an Indian name, meaning "place of much water" or "near the great brook."
Massabesic Lake is one of the best lakes in New Hampshire for both bass and trout
and the lake is periodically stocked with trout by the N.H. Department of Fish and Game. It also has a large supply of white and yellow perch, as well as black crappie, northern pike, and bluegills.
