[QUOTE="Allen, post: 192954, member: 389"] A chain saw will work on thinner ice, but what most people do (from what I've seen) is they use a regular ice auger to drill a rough opening and then an ice saw (google images will help with that if you haven't seen one) to finish up the job. Bottom line is that at the end you are going to have several large and heavy pieces of ice that you will either want to remove from the hole, or you will push under the ice. The smaller these large pieces are, the easier of a job you will have in clearing the spearing hole. Two things. 1. DON'T forget to mark the hole! 2. DON'T leave really large chunks of ice on top of the lake for others to whack with their vehicles, snowmobiles, or 4-wheelers. Dangerous as all hell to them for the remainder of the winter. So push the larger pieces of ice that you have pulled out of the lake back into the hole when you are done. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
