Augerholt

Augerholt is a small, cold, cosy fishing game. A frozen lake, a wooden hut with a smoking chimney, an auger and three days to catch the heaviest bucket in the tournament.

Where you drill matters. Reed beds mark shallow, weedy water where pike lurk; red flags show the depth; deep holes hold whitefish at midday and burbot after dark. Every hole tells you its depth and what is likely to be biting at that hour.

• Drill and read the lake: reeds, depth flags and the depth of every hole you drill
• Six species: roach, perch, pike, zander, whitefish and burbot, each with its own depth and hours
• Jigging: a steady rhythm draws fish in, frantic jigging scares them off
• Line tension: reel in, give line on runs, and keep the gauge out of the red and away from slack
• Cold meter: it drops faster at night and while drilling; let it run out and you lose an hour in the hut
• Three-day tournament: the five heaviest fish of each day count towards the weigh-in target
