I take a small bty drill with me, you can buy good ice anchors at cdn tire. Also you can use long 5/16 in lag bolts. My friend uses a small hand drill the old fashioned kind with a crank and gear on the side, I hear an ice pick will get your hold started too, and drill bit 1/4 to 3/8 should work for a pilot hole.

Found one in my stocking this year, you can get them at Baron and I'm sure most other stores.

The ice screws that come with Eskimo Ice Shacks work great. Easy to turn into the ice by hand and they hold fast. You can buy them from the Eskimo web site. They cost a few bucks but well worth the money.
