ice hole
Winter fishing access
An ice hole is an opening cut or melted through ice, typically on a frozen lake or river, used for ice fishing, winter swimming, or accessing water below.
The term also functions as a phonetic disguise for "asshole"—a way to call someone an asshole while maintaining plausible deniability: You're such an ice hole.
