Title: $729.00 ouch!!
Post by: motocross269 on July 27, 2008, 04:25:03 PM
I just took a week off to fish a tourney at Martiny, Spend a couple days at Lake Charlevoix, and then head over to Grand and Long Lake for a family reunion and more fishing...
I thought I would put all of my gas on my credit card for my boat and my truck just to see how much I spent...Grand total 729.00 dollars... :o..I didn't even get out as much as I wanted to on Charlevoix and couldn't get out on Grand Traverse Bay because of the wind..(Had my wife and daughter with me)..
I am headed up to Charlevoix again in a couple of weeks for a Team Bass Tourney...I am going to have to work alot of weekends just to pay my gas bill..Hopefully Gas Prices drop alot more by then...Anyone got a good DI motor for sale... ;D
