Since I have three good lakes with thirty five minutes of me, with my favorite being only eight minutes away, a tank of gas will last me almost two weeks. That comes to about six bucks. Since I make my own ice and don’t have to stop to get bait, that about rounds out my cost per trip for the short trips. The longer trips take half an hour on average so that’s more gas. I’d estimate less than twenty bucks round trip for them. My Silverado gets around eighteen miles a gallon average and the farthest lake is less than twenty five miles away. That allows me to fish four to five times a week on average without having to put gas in my truck and my Honda motors sip gas so I only have to put gas in my boat roughly once a month. Unbelievable but totally the truth.
