Now lets do the math!!! You went 65 out 65 back 25 trolling 155 nm.So that would be 178.25 miles at 50gallons a touch over 3.5 miles per gallon!!!!OK that is awesome!!!!!!!!!! Also lets not forget that you may still have Give me six left on that 140DT. Them dam nip's still I guess you would think about running to the Hudson (on a V-20 day). Truly a mini mini sport fisherman.

Skunk........... charter friend connected with large blue fin a bit east of Chicken Canyon yesterday, July 4. He was headed out along side us.

He's Eric Kerber - the " On a Mission Fishing Adventures" from Belmar, NJ .
Runs a big Grady - super good guy if you or others want to shoot for tuna.
Step Up and I've fished with him.

Only fluke fishing and I enjoyed the trip but I never went tuna fishing on a charter have enough rides on anywhere from a 65 footer down to the mini V-20. Offshore fishing is a allot different than inshore. After all am happy to go anywhere at dam near 71 years old!!!!!!!

Based on the reported fuel economy numbers, I agree - fantastic economy.
