A tip-up for use in ice fishing which comprises a housing containing a rotatable reel having a fishing line wound thereon, a crank for rotating the reel, a signal member pivoted on the reel on an axis offset from the axis of rotation of the reel and extending through a slot in the housing, the upper end of the signal member having a visual signal portion which oscillates externally of the housing when a fish takes the line off of the reel, and means for yieldably resisting unwinding of the reel. The housing is hollow and is adapted to completely cover the hole in the ice to retard freezing of the water therein.
