Put some new blades on the auger and she cuts the ice like butter again!

cool video, the auger extension is a bit premature however...

Got skunked today lol I couldn't set a hook if my life depended on it. Blades can be bought at any store that sells strikemaster ,WSS and cabelas are a good bet. I'm waiting on a call back from a guy I looked up on kijiji to come and pick up my old blades to sharpen them up, hopefully he can put a good edge back on . The ice up here was close to 3' a few weeks ago so I put the extension on to avoid dunking her.

Pro tip 101:
Go to R&R Sharpening with your old blades. 178 st and 107th. Like 8 dollars and they are like new.

If you do go to R&R, don't take Eskimo Turbo cut blades (the curved ones). They destroyed 2 sets of my blades last season. They are very hard to come by and have to be ordered online for $50 a set.
