Hey Shane,
Got to try my Nils yesterday and must say I like it a lot... So much easier to use than the power or hand auger.. Made it easy to punch holes as you go out to stay safe on thin ice... Easy to drill extra holes for running fish finders next to the hole you're fishing, so yup I really like it... Pretty sure I'll try to take good care of it... I'm also thinking it will become my main auger from now on... (Probably should have got the 8", didn't think the drill could turn that big of auger, but it does it easily...)
Also tried my white out rod with the Free Fall reel on, and totally loved it... I'm feeling pretty spoiled with the new gear, it's working well... I'm thinking come Saturday morning as the cold sets in, that after a few days we'll be into ice season full on... Thanks for the tips... Later J
