Jeff, an Ice Eater is basically a large propeller in a housing that you set below the water. It is run by electricity provided usually from a generator (although some duck hunting sites have electricity, the ones I am familiar with do not so we use a generator.) The Propeller keeps the water moving so that it will not freeze up even during very cold temperatures. Further the open water is very attractive to passing waterfowl who will attempt to land among your decoys in this open water. If they attempt to land, Destry will shoot the eyes out of everything near and far. That's his story and I'm sticking to it ;>) BC
If you use your search engine looking for ice eater you will find lots of providers and youtubes showing their uses.
