Week 2 of the 2026 Fall Mack Days is in the books, and anglers are making waves on Flathead Lake! With 3,983 lake trout turned in during the first two weeks, the competition is picking up momentum as Terry Krogstad leads the way with an impressive 491 fish.
Sponsored by CSKT NRD Fish, Wildlife, Recreation & Conservation, this nine-week fishing event continues through November 8, giving anglers plenty of opportunities to climb the leaderboard and reel in some incredible prizes! The elusive $10,000 tagged lake trout is still swimming out there, along with three $5,000 fish, five $1,000 fish, and more than 9,000 tagged fish worth $100 to $500.
Whether you’re chasing the top spot or hoping to hook a prize-winning fish, there’s still plenty of excitement ahead! Visit www.mackdays.com for event information, fishing tips, and more. Tight lines, stay safe, and happy fishing!
