Blustery week two of Mack Days causes anglers to retreat
Two weeks are in the books for the 2024 Spring Mack Days Fishing Event on Flathead Lake.
Mack Days are sponsored by the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and sanctioned by Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks. The event continues through May 11 and anglers may enter at any time until the last day.
Mack Days anglers went from one weather extreme to another in the first two weeks of the nine-week-long event. The first weekend offered calm waters, sunny skies, and light winds and produced the third highest weekend of entries (5,644) since the events began in 2002.
