Good points made here. Fish until you need the ice auger. Heck, on the Mississippi river they break 1-2 inches of ice at the boat landings to get to the river channel (however that's tough on the transducers).

Here's an additional comment on the lower unit. You can pull the bottom screw only and check for water. If there is water, then you need to drain it all out (pull top screw too) and see your mechanic to replace seals. Keep this in mind, oil floats on water. If there is water in the lower unit, the water will come out first. If you pull the bottom screw and you immediately get good oil, you are good to go, keep fishing until the cows come home....jim
