After many long days casting, many fish lost, and many opportunities, I finally got my 50! I really hope others get to experience a moment just as exciting as this! My Boat: www.alumacraft.com/Alumacraft-... My Instagram: / benstonemn
Great mechanics, man! Wide 8...got your hand on the foregrip just in time to belt her...set back into her strong...free spool boatside...You deserved that one!
The build up was executed very well, almost like it was planned. Thats in a good way too, keep that kinda work up and you'll have something pretty special happen!
DUDE !! awesome vid, great editing, you built viewer anticipation throughout, LOVED IT, congrats on the 50", have a great rest of the season from Jim at R & J
Great catch and great story. Congrats man! Your attitude is the best part. I lost a 50-52" range fish my first year musky fishing on topwater. Woulda been my first 50. That fish haunted me for a long time. I had to catch 75 muskies and then #76 decided to eat. 52.25" and my first 50. I immediately remembered the wise words of a friend (that is a guide), "You'll appreciate your first 50 more because you've worked so hard for it". He was right. My own spot that I've fished for years, casting from shore the way I always do, and it finally happened on my home waters in Southern WI. All of those feelings I experienced that day came back to me while watching your vid, so thank you. Check out my channel when you get a chance, lots of musky content. And like you said - just. keep. casting.
Congrats, young man, on a great fish and a job well done. Yup, you have to retire that bait and hang it in a place of honor in your home. Piece of advice: If you're not already doing so, get involved with Muskie's Inc. You don't have to be a member to go to a monthly meeting. Go to the meetings and get involved. You'll learn a ton about muskies.
MsPrincesspaulina I’ve been to a few, big fan of what they do! These fisheries wouldn’t be as good or even possible with out them! Thanks for watching!
Go on the trip to Sabaskong Bay, Red Wing Lodge in August with the Twin Cities Chapter of Muskie's Inc.. Lots of big fish up there. They do this trip every year
