BIGRIGZ (12/27/2007)Xandau, how many miles are average gulf outing trips? I'm trying to get an idea of what fuel costs might be for a day of fishing....

Would you think 12 miles out, 5-6 miles trolling, 12 miles back? So far, I've only ever fished in the bay. If this boat deal goes through I'm headin to the pass and the gulf!


Your needs and mine might be way different. My typical trip ranges from 30 miles from the sea buoy each way with 8-24 hours of fishing all the way on out to over 100 miles from the pass each way with the same fishing.

What kind of fish do you want to catch and what are you planning to do with the boat? Oh, and what is it?
