Wow there are lots of choices out there, but you obviously get what you pay for. Hand augers can run from $19-75. On a student budget look for any ice fishing gear in your local paper in the eant ads. If there are any garage sales you can get to in the winter drop by, you will be amazed at the amount of gear aperson can pick up at these sales. When I attended CMU (go Chips) I too lacked the resources to get out and do what I loved, but I put a wanted items list on the boards and within days I had a complete outfit at a very cheap price.
