Lake Nockamixon is a stunning 1,450-acre reservoir located in northern Bucks County, Pennsylvania, just an hour north of Philadelphia. Surrounded by Nockamixon State Park's 5,286 acres of wooded hills, this man-made lake was created in 1974 when a 120-foot dam was constructed on Tohickon Creek. The lake stretches approximately 7 miles in length with 24 miles of shoreline and reaches a maximum depth of 90 feet near the dam at its eastern end. Despite having a reputation as a challenging fishery, Lake Nockamixon has become recognized as Pennsylvania's premier trophy bass fishing destination and offers excellent habitat for a variety of fish species throughout its diverse underwater structures, which include submerged roadbeds, bridges, and house foundations from the old Tohickon Village.
