    The wife and I got down to redwing today (alone) and we planned on targeting white bass but the GOD’s had other plans for us. Eventually everything panned out and the day ended with a BANG. I set the hook on what I thought to be a snag but then it started gracefully swimming away from me and fast I pulled the anchor and chased the fish dowmstream. After a 35 minute wrestling match on a 7’6″ ML shimano crucial rod, Plfueger president xt 6725 (yup a small reel), and 6 pound Pflourocarbon line as well as a BFishin jig, I landed this 40 plus inch musky. Thanks to Dave Beck (the photographer) I was able to get some pics of the fish and my wife. Yes we did end up catching some nice White bass also. Thanks to Tiny Tim and Brian K.

    I finally caught a fish that I can definately say is MY personal best. I have been wanting to post something like this since I became a member to this site. Thanks again to every one at Evert’s and it is safe to say we will be back very soon.

    Joe it was good to finally meet your wife…and I’m a bit surprised she puts up with you.

    Ok, let’s start over again! It was nice to meet your wife today…and good things aways come to people that wait on P4! P4 isn’t known for it’s ski’s so you really did hook into a trophy there!

    I’m glad you got your wife into some fish.

    I believe that would qualify for a PB pin for sure If it was your pool 4 PB musky and you let her swim thats pin worthy Talk to Dean next time you are down

    Great picture! What fun! ‘Chasing Big Skis’ program on FSN this morning got my blood pumpin’. The IDO website was touted on the program and now I’m here. Newbie. The first post I looked at was this one. I checked the FAQ, what’s a PB pin?

    First of all welcome and to answer your question a “P”ersonal “B”est (fish) is a pin that is offered from Dean at Everts Resort anytime you are on Pool 4 and catch the biggest fish (most species) you have ever caught this qualifies you for a “Personal Best” now the main part is the fish is a : catch, photo and release. Then you stop in at Everts and show the photo and brag up your fish and get the pin.
