Abstract
An ice fishing device having a cylindrical sleeve that is resilient and radially compressible to enable the ice fishing device to adapt to a variety of different size holes in the ice and members on the cylindrical sleeve to vertically and securely support the ice fishing device within the confines of a hole in the ice. A small charcoal chamber attaches to the side of the ice fishing device and holds sufficient charcoal to produce sufficient heat to keep the water in the hole from freezing yet keep the ice fishing device sufficiently cool so as not to burn a fishing line located therein.
