Going to the pond in winter is difficult without a ice drill . With the help of such an important and irreplaceable assistant, each angler will be able to drill a certain number of holes of a specific diameter in order to prepare a place for fishing.
The range of these tools is quite diverse. You can easily pick up both ultra-modern models, complemented by gas or gasoline engines, and give preference to classic hand tools. It all depends on the individual preferences of each angler.
How to choose an ice drill
A quality ice drill can be selected taking into account a large number of various criteria. It is important to take into account the thickness of the ice crust, with which the instrument must cope, pay attention to its maximum length and weight.
However, the main parameter is precisely the diameter of the intended hole. Based on this, the following models are distinguished:
- Ice auger for winter fishing with a diameter of up to 100 mm - these are high-speed models with which it is possible to prepare a hole in the shortest possible time. Some anglers equip these augers with augers (choose long augers). In this case, a full-fledged sports tool is obtained.
- Ice augers with a diameter of 130 mm are universal models that are recommended to be chosen by anglers who are not versed in the peculiarities of preparing for the winter "hunt". You can go with them to absolutely any fish - peaceful or predatory inhabitants of reservoirs.
- Boers with a diameter of 150 and 180 mm are an excellent option if you have to catch trophy predators (burbot, pike, perch, pike perch). < / li>
Also, do not forget about the comfortable conditions, which are influenced by the weight and size of the instrument. For example, for anglers who will travel long distances in a frozen reservoir, it is recommended to choose lighter models.
