An ice auger (20) has a rotatable rod (52) adjacent and parallel to the central shaft (21) supported at the bottom in a cylindrical receptacle (56). A vertical ice reaming blade (51) is attached to the rod (52) above the receptacle (56) and a retaining loop (57) affixed to the shaft (21) and positioned above the ice reaming blade (51) prevents the rod (52) from rising out of the receptacle (56). A right angled handle (53) at the top of the rod (52) extends outward above and in the same plane as the ice reaming blade (51). A spring biased latch assembly (55) disposed near the top of the shaft (21) engages the handle (53) with the ice reaming blade (51) in rest position. Releasing the latch (55) frees the rod (52) to rotate 180° and move the ice reaming blade (51) to use position extending outward beyond the standard auger members to ream the bottom of the ice hole (37). Vertical support posts (61, 62) stabilize the system and prevent wobble. One post (61) functions as a stop and back support for the ice reaming blade (51) during use.
