One of the most important steps in ice fishing is drilling the hole. You can’t get to the fish unless you can get through the ice—that’s why you need a reliable, easy-to-operate ice auger. Whether you prefer hand, drill, or electric, SCHEELS has the right auger for you. Our Experts highlight the best ice augers for the season ahead.

How We Picked These Ice Augers

A dependable auger is the first step to a successful day on the ice, so our SCHEELS Ice Fishing Experts carefully selected models that balance power, weight, and ease of use. Our recommendations come from a mix of hands-on testing, customer feedback, and in-depth brand training through SCHEELS University. This combination allows us to evaluate how each auger performs in real conditions so you can trust these picks to get the job done.

With one of these top ice augers, you’ll be ready for the season ahead. If you have additional questions about choosing an auger or preparing for the season, stop into your local SCHEELS to speak with an Ice Fishing Expert.
