Lake Information for Lake Marburg
The 1,275-acre Lake Marburg is a 1,275-acre lake located in Codorus State Park in the rolling hills of southern York County. The lake has 26 miles of shoreline and is a reststop for migrating waterfowl and shorebirds. The lake is also popular with sailboaters and motorboaters. Anglers love the lake for warm water fishing and can also fish Codorus Creek for trout. Picnicking, swimming in the pool and camping are popular activities.
Lake Marburg is a warm-water fishery. Popular species are yellow perch, bluegill, northern pike, crappie, largemouth bass, catfish, muskellunge and tiger muskellunge. Bow fishing is permitted in the shallow cove areas.
Lake Marburg is in the Big Bass Program. Large and smallmouth bass must be a minimum of 15 inches long to be harvested and the daily limit is four fish of either species, combined.
East Branch Codorus Creek, along Park Road, is an approved trout stocking stream. The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources and PA Fish and Boat Commission rules and regulations apply.
Except for the ice skating area, all of Lake Marburg is open for ice fishing. Popular species caught through the ice are yellow perch, bluegill, northern pike, crappie, largemouth bass, catfish, muskellunge and tiger muskellunge.
