As the new season approaches, head over to Acme Tools for your ice fishing essentials. Both new and seasoned anglers transition from fishing to ice fishing, and the equipment required changes too. We’ve put together a list of items needed in the winter fishing season to help you stay out on the ice longer, catching as many fish as possible.
Augers
Access the water with a high-quality auger; after all, it’s the backbone of your ice fishing experience for years to come. Place your holes expertly and efficiently with a manual, gas, or electric auger.
Manual Ice Augers are lightweight and produce less noise and vibration. The compact design, along with the elimination of gas and electricity, makes hand augers easily portable.
Gas-Powered Augers contain impressive power and torque. While heavier than manual augers, users can drill through many inches of ice and create more holes in a shorter amount of time.
Electric Augers combine functions from both manual and gas augers. The augers eliminate fumes and produce less noise while getting power from a rechargeable battery. Drill your holes without scaring away fish.

Eskimo 8″ Pistol Bit with Centering Point
