Abstract
An ice fishing net apparatus that may be utilized to lift fish out of an ice fishing hole. The ice fishing net of the invention includes a hoop and net that is actuatable between a landing position and a netting position. The hoop has a round shape when viewed from the xy plane of an xyz coordinate system and further includes additional bends as viewed from the xz and yz planes such that the hoop conforms to a cylindrical sidewall of an ice fishing hole when oriented in either a landing or netting position. The ice fishing apparatus is particularly useful for netting fish from an ice hole while the user remains in an upright, standing position.
