How this tool works

Fuel = round-trip miles ÷ miles per gallon × price per gallon. Shared costs (fuel, launch, guide, lodging, bait) are split between anglers; licences are per person, so the licence you enter is added to each angler's share.

FAQ

Is the licence cost split between anglers?

No. Each angler who needs a licence buys their own, so the licence amount is added to every person's share instead of being divided.

What belongs in a fishing trip budget?

Fuel for the round trip, launch or parking fees, a guide if you hire one, lodging, the bait and tackle you will use up, and a licence for each angler who needs one. Leave a margin for fuel price changes.
