The original buddy heater works well in my Frabill Recon. Aimed at the ice hole keeps hole and line free of ice.

Mr Buddy Portable Heater works well for me in my one man Fish Trap Pro.

One tip for any propane heater:  Keep it in a plastic garbage bag or other waterproof bag until you are ready to set it up.  I accidentally threw a little slush into mine while setting up my shanty and had to fight with it to dry out the orifice to get it to light.  Not fun when you want to get warm in a hurry.

I have the buddy that screws onto the 1lb tanks.  I also at one point bought the mr heater cooker on clearance.  the problem is that its just too much for a one man.  gets too hot and uses way more fuel than necessary for that application.  So I bought the small buddy and it works perfect in a 1 man.

There is this...

https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Heater-F215100-3800-BTU-Propane/dp/B001CFRF7I/ref=pd_lpo_3?pd_rd_i=B001CFRF7I&th=1

Don't buy these from Amazon.  Ebay has them for $15 cheaper https://www.ebay.com/itm/175077432080  For a lot of stuff about anyplace is cheaper than Amazon lately.  Shop around!
