Ice Fishing Augers
Types: there are different types of augers each with pros and cons.
- Hand powered: Take longer, especially in thick ice but they’re light and the most affordable.
- Cost: ~$50 - $100
- Gas auger: Heavier and more expensive than a hand auger, but they don’t need to be charged like an electric auger and they drill quicker and more powerfully than a hand auger.
- Cost: ~$200 - $400
- Electric auger: Light, powerful, and less messy than gas augers, but also the most expensive. They also make electric augers that can be attached to and powered by a cordless drill.
- Cost: ~$300 - $600
