Jiffy Ice Auger

We Love Ice Fishing

Jiffy Ice Augers are made by Feldmann Engineering & Mfg. Co. of Sheboygan Falls, WI, deep in ice fishing country. They also make similar items like BADGER Earth Augers and TurfVent Lawn Aerators, of little interest to us when fishing. They made their first power ice drill in 1951, and that is their main business - they are almost legendary!

Jiffy Model 30 Ice Drill AugerThe gas powered Jiffy Model 30 is owned by more fisherman than all other ice augers combined, or so say many people. It is obviously extremely popular.

It's ideal for drilling (and redrilling) holes up to 36 inches deep, and features include:

  • Jiffy® 3500 Series engine, 2-cycle, 3hp made by Tecumseh engine
  • An 8 inch or 10 inch assembly (blade/hole diameter)
  • Weighs in at a manageable 31 pounds
  • An enlarged Power Point to grab the ice quickly and securely
  • An E-Z Connect Collar which lets you remove the drill easily without tools
  • See-through fuel tank so you can see how much fuel is left
  • A non-flood primer
  • Manufacturer's one year limited warrantee

The Jiffy Model 30 is essentially a legend!

Jiffy 2500  Stealth STX Ice Drill Auger

The Jiffy® 2500 Series Stealth STX™ Ice Drill to the right is also an extremely popular gas drill and only about $10 more.

It's an Ice Cutting Machine with its 2hp performance engine and  high-speed transmission and cuts holes up to 36" deep. Features include:

  • Serrated Ripper/Power Point Blade with 5 cutting surfaces to last 2 to 3 times longer than other blades
  • EZ Connect Collar to let you remove the drill assembly without tools
  • Black D-Ice'r ARMOR to prevent power robbing ice buildup on the blade  for fast, clean cutting performance
  • See-through fuel tank for  checking the fuel level
  • A  non flood primer

The Jiffy® 2500 Series Stealth STX™ Ice Drill also includes Mitten Grip recoil handles, and a manufacturer's Limited Warranty: 1 year motor, 2 year transmission, and 3 year STX blades.

 

Jiffy Legend XT™ Ice AugerThe Jiffy Legend XT is the top of the line Jiffy gas powered ice auger.

It's lightweight at 30 pounds, and  fast and powerful with its 2 horsepower engine. Some users report it "cuts through ice like butter!"

  • Engineered for fast starts every time
  • EZ Connect Collar to make removing the drill fast and tool free
  • Black D-Ice'r ARMOR on the blade prevents ice build-up for faster, cleaner cutting and more powerful performance
  • 8'' ripper blade that increases cutting performance by 15%

The Jiffy Legend XT is a lightweight no compromise ice fishing auger that drills holes up to 36" deep.

 

Jiffy Ice Augers have been quality products since the beginning. Now  ice fishermen are passionate about their augers and other gear, and some will insist that Jiffys are not as good as they used to be, but others will claim exactly the opposite: that they are as good as ever. Let's just say this: There is a reason that Jiffys are still extremely popular.
