Only one weekend left in the 2024 Spring Mack Days fishing event on Flathead Lake.
The event began March 14 and will end Saturday May 11. Mack Days fishing events are sponsored by the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and are sanctioned by Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks. The events are used as a management tool to reduce the numbers of non-native lake trout in Flathead Lake.
This event is one of the better events in Mack Days history when it comes to numbers of lake trout entered. A total of 32,683 have been entered so far. The 2019 Spring Event holds the record fish count at 40,357. This past Fridays total came to 1,478, Saturdays total was 922, and Sundays total was 532.
