Mackay Reservoir - MMDon - 12-03-2010

Anyone tested the ice up there yet? I'd like to run up this weekend!

Thanks for any help!

Don,

The air temps seem to be a little lower in Arco and Mackay; I think you will find some good ice. This being what I believe is the 2nd year in the cycle you should have some good koke action. Please let us know how you do; my son and I go to Mackay every Winter Solstice. It has become quite the tradition.

Mackay is usually 30 days ahead of Ririe and about in line with Island Park on the ice formation. I'm not going over until I get an ice report however. [Image: sad.gif]

I talked to a guy briefly who said he fished Mackey this weekend. He said two of them limited out in 2 hours and the ice was plenty thick. Thats all the info I got it was a brief conversation. Let us know if you make it up there, take your camera as well.
