ABSTRACT:
An ice fishing hole cover and tip up device for fishing with a fishing line through a hole in ice. The device includes a housing which rests atop the ice and is dimensioned to cover an ice fishing hole formed in the ice, a shaft extending between opposite sides of the housing and journaled therein for rotation with respect to the housing with one end projecting from one side of the housing, a fishing line spool carried on the shaft and rotatable therewith to play out and reel in fishing line, a signal flag movable between a set position engageable with the projecting end of the shaft and a tripped position disengaged from the shaft, and a spring for biasing the signal flag toward its tripped position. In its set position, the signal flag is engaged within a detent notch formed in the projecting end of the shaft and is tripped by rotation of the shaft so that a beveled surface on the projecting end of the shaft permits the signal flag to become disengaged from the end of the shaft in response to playing out of fishing line. The trigger tension can also be adjusted for preferred release of the flag.
