A couple of stats from the trip:
In the 9 days we burned a little less that $1000 in fuel in the boat at $3.85 per gallon. About 3.5 gallons of 2 stroke oil. The run offshore is about 20 miles to 160 ft. On the offshore days we fished until around 2 pm or so each day. Most of the fish we caught were between 140 ft - 180 ft. in scattered weeds. Hot colors were blue/white, chartreuse/pink, pink and also green. They pretty much hit everything we put out but when it got slow the big bulls loved the blue/white bullet head. The 4 bed 3 bath house ran about 100 per night for 10 nights, which was cheaper than any hotel on the island. Our 3 man crew threw in on a kitty which paid for truck/boat fuel, ice, bait and launch fee each day. The 3 of us threw in $500 on day one and ended up having to put in $50 more at the end, so $550 each for fishing 9 days and truck gas round trip.
