Fished Mackay today. We were the only ones there. We did see someone taking a shack up as we were leaving. We got there around 10:30. It took about 1/2 hr to get them going but then we both caught 6 in the next hour. Ice is 10" thick. We fished just off the bottom using various color plastic jigs and ice flies. They didn't seem to care. We used meal worms and corn for bait. Fished out from the boat ramp. We forgot the limit is 15. I guess we could have kept fishing. Oh well, enough to share with the neighbor and for fish tacos this evening. Next time we will shoot for catching the new limit of 15 each and smoke them.
