There's something to be said about getting the most miles out of your equipment, and my bet is you are catching fish carmike.

The Jiffy propane auger worked without any problems all last winter conservatively drilling 1000+ holes. It drills great new holes or thru old holes. I bought this over an electric for drilling inside the wheelhouse. Not much for fumes(smoke alarm/co meter do not go off)

It starts normally on one pull. I do keep the tanks warm, but have left the auger and tank in the back of the truck -20+ and it started no problem. The blades cut the ice without my down pressure and are still sharp as new.
