Shell run 55. What about from barkley dam ramp to jonathon creek. Just curious sorry for the crazy questions

Still a LONG way. I at google maps and I'm getting that it's about 20 miles from the Barkley dam to jonathan creek. Pretty long boat ride.

Yup. About 20 miles.
That's not a trip you'll want to make if the wind decides to get up at some point, either. The rollers on the north end get BIG with a north or south wind.
Most 2 stroke outboards get around 5 mpg on a good day, so you'll burn $40+ in fuel for a round trip. It would be safer, cheaper and possibly faster to just trailer over that way.

It's a very pleasant trip....in your truck with the boat on the trailer. Otherwise it is a long rough ride if the wind comes up.Originally Posted by fishassasin
I ran from Moors to Craven's Bay once. It was a nice boat ride and didn't take a half-hour. Fished and messed around working south a bay at a time for 4 or 5 hours then headed back. 2 hours and 20 minutes of back crunching and wave spearing.
I put it on the trailer to cover long hauls now. It's easier on me and my truck gets better gas mileage than the boat.
