Follow your fat friend out then drill a hole.

What's a spud bar? And how do you use it.
spud bar.
at only 125lbs I usually get sent out and drill holes with the hand auger as I go every few feet and everyone follows me if we are the first one to fish the body of water
(Image removed from quote.)Big rocks if im alone.Im 220(thats eyecatcher00 in the pic not me but it was my rock) and have an artic armour suit so I almost always get sent out first, it will usually take me a good hour or two to work my way out to 25-28 FOW where I want to be at first ice and the first time out is always the most nerve wrecking. I bring a 6" hand auger and drill every 10-30 feet.
