Abstract
A bias coil spring loaded ice fishing tip-up assembly having an indicator light consisting of a light bulb, two strand lead wires, a non conductive collar with a metal plate attached, a conductive collar and a battery clip. This assembly is attached to a movable strike indicator which, when activated by a trigger will cause the completion of a circuit, lighting the bulb intermittently at first, then becoming a steady source of light, signaling a fish strike.
