We travel 8 hrs each way 3 times a year and the gas prices hurt us last year. I just love the lake for Walleye and Smallies,but if prices climb above $4-$5 per gallon I might have to reconsider Me and my buddy make good money but it just stings to pay big oil companys. I'll pray for lower gas for all of us even if we done make it this year. Tight lines all.
