    I hope someone posts up what it is ‘cuz I’m real curious too. I was talking about this very accessory to my friends last year as we were on the ice and they didn’t really know what I was talking about. Looking forward to finding out.

    That looks really cool! Is there enough space for an auger extension though?

    It’s called a Auger Caddy.

    As for info that where things get hard. Their web addy does not work.
    The closest I can get you is with this link: Auger Caddy.
    The link has prices, although I am not sure how current, reliable, or trust worthy the web site is.

    I came up with the same web page as Ron. I did mange to find one that was mounted on a hat channel instead of tube. The tube one was much more sturdy looking. Got to love the internet for looking up toys.

    I saw an ad in Wisconsin Outdoor News right after reading your post. I don’t think it’s identical but pretty close. They also have a working website. The video is pretty thorough.

    Hope this helps.

    Now that is pretty damn cool if you ask me. Not the same operation as the one on the video up top, but looks pretty functional. Thanks for the link.

    Fleet Farm carries them.
    There are two different models, one has a built in carring basket and the other does not.

    It’s too bad they cost almost as much as the whole auger does.

    I saw one at Gander Mountain in Lakeville before the Holidays. They had it mounted on an ATV as a demo, really cool unit, and built solid too. Not sure on price info or any of the other details. Hope this helps

    If anyone is interested in one of these, I have one that has been used very little. I no longer have an ATV. I would be interested in selling it. My E-mail address is;
