I am looking to purchase a used gas ice auger. I would perfer a 8", 9", or even a 10 inch. Make is not important to me as I do not drill more than 3 or 4 holes per week. I am looking for used, but not used up. I would be interested in a new drill if the price was right?!?!?!?

Chris or Ken do you have any last year models or willing to make a deal since it's getting close to end of season? I have been using my 8" hand auger but by the time I drill through....I am almost to tired to fish!

Thanks in advance!

Well, we normally don't put the augers on sale until after walleye season closes. We probably won't be doing that this year, though. Apparently Tecumseh has gone out of business (they're the ones who make the power heads for most augers.) That means next season Jiffy, Strikemaster, and Eskimo will most likely be powered by engines made in China, not the USA:( If we have any on hand at the end of this season, we're probably going to sit on them for next winter.
