Hope it goes to $10 bucks a gallon. Keep all the 20 year old youtubers from fishing. Hope your pie hole grows shut.. Going to hurt most retired folks a lot worse than any "youtubers"

Its already making me think twice about my tournament schedule for the remainder of the year. Had a 2 day touranment at Ivie this weekend. 2 tanks of gas in the truck and 50 gallons in the boat I was in for almost 400 this past weekend. And it wasn't as high as it is now.

The fuel prices now will be considered cheap, compared to the prices in 2 months. There is only 1 way to save fuel, don’t buy it, a lot of these tournaments will come to a halt unfortunately. We haven’t even discussed the repercussions of the fuel cost to goods that we purchase in everyday life. Groceries will be beyond belief and every bill you get will go up due to the businesses fuel cost having gone up. The blue collar people will get crushed in this mess and the idiot in the White House will finally cave in when it’s too late to do any good.
Tip: start saving your money now, we’re gonna need it later. The rainy day is gonna hit in a few months. I hate to sound so negative, but there are some dark and scary times coming this round.
Yes, FJB for not helping us out when he could allow maximum drilling to proceed. Well said

Hope it goes to $10 bucks a gallon. Keep all the 20 year old youtubers from fishing. It just might get to that with the Idiots running the country these days. Biden shut down drilling in America early on, removed the sanctions on Russia which allowed them to continue their pipeline and then he turns around and buys fuel from Russia. Total Idiot. Now he is blaming our gas prices on Putin. The American people need to run all Democraps out of office because they are destroying America. Democraps don't care about you or America. They only care about themselves getting rich by being corrupt. All of them are corrupt. Very simple solution, quit buying oil from other countries and reopen the pipeline in America. Our own fuel and putting Americans back to work. But the IDIOT DEMOCRAPS ARE AGAINST THAT. They keep talking about green energy. The are brain damaged.

I hope Dan is just trolling us, I can’t imagine that many people in America can afford $10gal fuel. Maybe he can, but most of us can’t.

Just spent 4 days in a row on Roberts, could have gone to a resort and been treated like a king for what it cost me in fuel. I’m driving 65 mph all the way to the lake instead of 70-75 to get the best mileage I can. Same with the boat, cruising around the lake at 45 - 50 instead of 68 mph everywhere I go. That’s about the only thing I know to do beyond fishing closer to home. I was going to Lake of the Pines to practice for a tournament about a month ago and it was the first road trip with the new rig. I realized after I fueled up in Sulphur Springs and got just north of Bob Sandlin near Mount Vernon the amount of money I had budgeted for fuel wasn't going to cover the trip so I called my wife and told her there was a change of plans, I was headed for Sandlin. I have a tournament coming up there as well. On the way back I got on I-30 and followed some of those governed 18 wheelers @ 65 mph. I got close enough to get rid of some of the wind resistance and my fuel consumption numbers quit clicking off at such a rate jumping 3 and 4 miles at a time instead of 1 mile at a time without the boat. We can still get out and use our rigs, we are just going to have to get creative.

If fuel goes up much more, I'll have to cut back on trips. I don't have any fishing water less than 70 miles. At least my boat is economical on fuel. 123 miles for me is the closest. Tough to know my day trips to relax are gonna cost just under $90 each trip....if I go today. Once gas hits $4.50 ill be at a cool hundy to fill up my gas tank. Havent filled up the boat in over a month....NOT looking forward to the ethanol free gas price next time. It was in the high 3s when gas was high 1s and 2 dollar range. Figure itll be 6-7 bucks a gallon right now.
