Ice fishing, skating at Cordorus

I drove from Baltimore to Hanover, Pa. this morning and was surprised to see ice skaters and anglers out on Lake Marburg in Codorus State Park. The lake is apparently sufficiently frozen for those winter activities. Several guys had drilled holes and had dropped baited lines for walleye, pike, bluegill and white perch. Bob Marchio, columnist for The Evening Sun in Hanover, has a helpful piece about ice fishing on Marburg today. “Ice fishing requires some special equipment — some basic, some highly technical,” he writes. “First, you need a hole in the ice.” I guess that would be the “highly technical” part.

For skating: When conditions allow, a 10-acre area in Chapel Cove, near the restrooms, is available for ice skating. When conditions are good, lights are provided to extend the skating time until 7:30 p.m. Skating is only permitted when the ice is posted as safe. Use extreme caution when venturing onto the ice. Check with the park office to determine ice conditions in the skating area. Other areas of the lake are not monitored. DIRECTIONSFrom I-83, take Exit 8. Go 18 miles west on PA 216 to the park. From PA 116, go through Hanover. Turn right onto PA 216 east and go three miles to the park.CONTACT INFOCodorus State Park 2600 Smith Station RoadHanover PA, PA 17331-8000717-637-2816Manager: Warren WerntzE-mail: codorussp@state.pa.us
