Looks like a good time to buy some new gear for the ice! Same price I paid last season on my Eskimo.
My link doesn't work right??

For all you Auger shoppers out there I would highly recommend NOT buying A JIFFY.  They are a nice machine but run like crap.(The New Models anyway). We took a trip on seventh lake this winter and a guy in our group had the new jiffy. He drilled one hole with it and that was it the thing wouldnt start the rest of the day.  Thank God we had an Eskimo Auger that ran perfect.  Otherwise our 3-hr drive would have been a waste of time

always bring old reliable with you motors dont like cold weather. lol. manaul works great if you find the fish fast and not to many holes to drill.
fill your buckets with quality not quantity and enjoy the conversations over heard of how good a fisherman you are................... ....

Strikemaster Mora 6inch, So far the motor hasn't quit, it (I) can be thirsty and hungry at times, And the more holes I drill the stronger I get. And gas prices don't effect me

I bought a new Strikemaster lazer auger today at Gander Mt. I hope it works as
good as my old Jiffy that finally died.
