One of those things I would rather not know. I honestly don't burn through a ton as I can usually get bit near where I launch. Its the trck gas that I blow through.

Man, if I factored that in I'd probably take up golf.

. Man I wish I could come out that cheap, I have spent that much in less then 2 months since I brought my new boat. And my old boat was worst on gas milage, So I would be scared to look at the yearly cost and just think i work out of Country 6 months a Year. hmmm

I'm with Mark, it's the $130 in diesel fuel it takes for a full tank to get to East Texas and back to Glen Rose that hurts for one day of fishing. With little effort I can minimize the boat gas with a little planning on where to launch/fish. Moot point anyway...I'm going, can't help it!

I don't know what I spend and do not want to know.

All I know is I am blessed to be able to afford to own a boat and put the gas in it to fish.


Truck gas is where my biggest expense is for sure, my boat isn't too bad if I keep my foot out of it.

Probably around $1700 to $2000. 200 Optimax. About $40 x 45 trips.
