I've got a bunch of kids that want me to take them ice fishing one more time this winter, I was thinking Mackey would be a great place for them to catch a bunch of fish. However I don't have an extension on my auger, does anybody know exactly how thick the ice is? Are people needing extensions to get through the ice? Also its been probably ten years since I've ice fished Mackey, any tips on where to find the kokanee would be appreciated. I know it used to be just drop something small and pink to the bottom and then bring it up a couple of feet and you would find them. I've never caught any trout up there, do you find them closer to the shore up there? Thanks for any help in advance, I'll be sure to post a report when I get back.
