Most all will work as they are closed foam ..find the cheapest you can find ..Mills Fleet has a set of three ..just some require paying for shipping . Like I said above ..shovel to the ice ...even better to shovel to the wind side to block the wind some .. also setting the hole cover slit in the right direction ..so when you approch the hole and remove the hole cover its an orchestrated move..I kneel on my cover to take care of the tip up.

I use the floor mats from Ocean State Job Lot for both my polar and stick tips ups.

But like HD points out keeping a clean set up can go a long way in slowing down the icing over of a hole

Hardwater- Just ordered a couple three packs from Scheels. Hopefully it helps with the icing over. Thanks!
