An ice depresser device for both clearing ice shavings from an ice hole and pumping dirty water from below such an ice hole. The ice depresser device generally includes a filter disc and a handle extending from the filter disc. The filter disc includes an upper cavity defined by a first flange and a lower cavity defined by a second flange. A plurality of filter openings are included across the body of the filter disc. As the filter disc is pushed downwardly through an ice hole, ice shavings will be pushed downwardly by the lower cavity to be swept away by the undercurrent. Other ice shavings will be pushed upwardly to be retained within the upper cavity by the pump action of the filter disc as it is drawn out of the ice hole. Thus, ice shavings or other debris may be both pushed under the current and removed from the ice hole utilizing the present invention.
