My trips to Chicken Canyon (60 miles straight shot)always burn 41-42 gallons. that includes trolling for hours, running to strings of pot markers, and a detour home to fish spots on the way in. Roughly 140 mile round trip. One of these times I should set the trail on the gps and get the actual total.

about 3.5 mpg average over the whole trip.
The motor is running from 430am until about 3 pm

These trips are always when its flat so I'm running 30 mph, trolling at 6 - 8mph
Heavy with fuel and ice...and rods....

let me tell you, running hard for 2 hrs straight ain't easy on the body
