An ice fishing tip-up is described that is adapted to rest on a sheet of ice surrounding a fishing opening in the sheet of ice. The ice fishing device has a plurality of movable supports with one end attached to a top mount and another end for resting on a surface to support the device, a spool post, a fishing line spool, and a signally device. The plurality of supports has a storage position and a deployed position, with the storage position defining an interior storage space. In the storage position, the fishing line spool is disposed within the interior storage space. Pulling on the fishing line spool activates the switch to trigger the signaling device. |

1. An ice fishing device adaptable to be deployed over a fishing opening in a sheet of ice comprising:
a plurality of movable supports each having a top end portion attached to a top mount and a distal end for resting on a surface to support the device, wherein the plurality of supports have a storage position and a deployed position wherein, in the storage position, the supports define an interior storage space and, in the deployed position, the support distal ends rest on the surface; a spool post operatively connected to the legs and/or operatively connected to the top mount, the spool post being further connected to a fishing line spool; and a signaling device comprising a switch operably connected to the fishing line spool, the switch being activatable by a movement of the spool to trigger the signaling device; wherein at the storage position of the movable supports, the fishing line spool is disposed within the interior storage space and, at the deployed position of the movable supports, the fishing line spool extends past the distal support ends. |
