Do-It-Yourself Power Ice Auger

From Drop Box


Yep, it really works! Just pick up an ice auger drill bit adapter from Gander Mountain for $20 or do like we did and make one with a big bit from Farm and Fleet for $5. We use a lithium 18 volt Makita drill and can drill over 75 holes on one battery charge!

So we ended up finishing the roof at about 2 pm today, headed to presleys to get some minnows for the weekend, got all our gear together, picked up dad about 3:30 and spent about an hour looking for fish. The water was a bit cloudy from the recent rains, and the fish were not interested in eating much, but we were rewarded with a few nice bluegill. I spent most of the time drilling (with my new auger of course) and searching, while the old man sat in one of our usual hot spots and caught the few fish.
