    So sometime over the last couple months my auger was stolen. Didn't notice until today when I was getting my gear ready .

    So before I bite the bullet I might as well check here to see if anyone is selling theirs.

    I'm L/F a Strikemaster Lazer Mag 10" or something similar.

    Let me know if you've got something before I drag my arse over to Pro-Am and cry my way to the till.

    Yup. Double kick in the nuts thanks to 2016 prices.

    Can always find a good deal on kijiji to get you by then sell it again until you find the one you want at good price

    Can move this to SOLD for now.


    I'm leaning towards a Husqvarna, couldn't find one today so I went to Pro-Am (called and told Brett my dilemma, he told me to come on down and he'd give me the Boxing Day prices today) and Brett hooked me up with a Jiffy propane to try out for a good price. I have a couple leads on a Husqvarna in the new year to check out. Kinda excited to try out the propane as I've never actually seen one in person.

    Lastly a HUGE SHOUT OUT to the 8! That's right 8 people (7 from this forum) who messaged or texted me to borrow their auger if needed. You guys are top notch, but an auger is just too essential to go without.

    Fishing a few times over the next 10 days so hopefully a review to follow.

    See you on the ice

    I have the Eskimo propane auger and I like it very much. Looking forward to your review of the Jiffy propane.
