If they get 1/2 the pot, they pay 1/2 the gas/oil, ice and other expenses for that day.

When I fished offshore, I had the boat, the others paid the fuel and ice. But we didn't fish many tournaments that paid cash. Just prizes.

Now as far as pleasure fishing .... When I'm in someones boat I always bring everyones food/ drinks . Plus always insist on paying all gas for the boat . I understand the costs of being a boat owner so I always am willing to pay more than my part. As far as guests on my boat if you're a 1st timer I got expenses but if u are a regular fisherman I expect u to pay your way but 90% of the people I've brought don't even offer they r like little fishing democrats with their hand out. Now that I've bought a bigger boat which costs at least 100.00 to tow anywhere I fish and usallu a minimum of 100.00 for gas 30 for ice 20-30 food ect... It gets expensive. I have 2-3 friends who I will let fish on my boat that I know are willing and offer to chip in .... I'm done taking freeloaders

This is not a tourney situation, but, it's just the way I feel it should be.
He did not charge you because of the FREE Football Knowledge you have given to him over the past few years.....

I fish a bass club, our rule is that we split cost and we set a minimum cost for a non boater. when we split cost thats gas, oil and launch. sometimes one guy will use there truck and tow the others boat, my truck sucks and my boat is too small so I always split cost 60/40 or 70/30, I never split half because I really rather fish in someone else's boat then my own and I would like the guys I fish with to know I'm not a freeloader. the last guy I fished with invited me to fish with him the next weekend after the tournament. I guess too If I was fishing in my own boat by myself it would cost me anyway.

I don't fish much in other peoples boats, but when I do, I pay, even if they don't want it. Gas cost too much right now. If they don't take money, I figure out something they or the boat needs and get it to them.

If I were to expect more I wouldn't have as many people that would want to go so I would end up paying 100% of the gas if I had no one to go with me. Now I do think if yall are fishing tournaments and winning enough money to have excess after the fuel bill and entry fees are paid the boat owner should get some of the maintenance cost out of the winnings. Like 100 hrs service, water pump replacement. I really wouldnt want someone making money off of tournaments and I dont because of the maintenance cost and we used my boat.

I'm going to have to disagree to that, unless he is fishing with the same person every time he brings the boat out and that person understands that before going fishing with him. This maybe have been stated and I missed it, so sorry if thats the case.

If I ask someone to fish with me, I pay.
If someone asks me to fish with me, we split expenses.
