[quote Flagmanonice]Another one for the tipup person would be how to keep your holes open when its cold . I drill through the ice , then I drill right next to it ( so they overlap alittle) down so theres a inch of water in it . Then i take a can with holes in it and put it in another can , slighly bigger without holes. Then I put charcoal in the small one and light it. Then I put it in the shallow hole. It keeps the hole open for a couple hours or more by adding charcoal every so often.[/quote]
I've never heard of this. Man when it hit's -35 there is always ice on the holes. I'm going to do this the next time we go out. best tip ever.[
