I have a Jiffy Pro4 auger. The power and reliability of this auger is amazing! But! I always have a plan B. I evaluated several hand augers on the market. The majority of them have a 6″ diameter auger. My Jiffy Pro4 auger bores an 8″ diameter hole through the ice. I chose the BassPro Shops hand ice auger because of its 8″ diameter auger. Why compromise?
The auger has a two piece design, which makes it very portable. The razor-sharp machined stainless steel blades cut through hard ice like a hot knife through butter: effortlessly. The plastic blade cover protects the blades and your gear from damage. Bottom line, the BassPro Shops hand ice auger is a high performance machine at a low cost.
