Abstract
A remotely controlled tip up assembly for ice fishing includes a platform with a linear slot and a spindle and spool assembly on a rotatable mounting block secured therein with a trigger opposite the spool. A spring-biased signal pole on the platform reversibly engages the trigger member. A signal system actuated upon movement of the signal pole includes a flag, a light and an audible signal. A communications component on the platform includes a power source connected to the light, audible signal, a second light illuminating the trigger on the shaft and spindle assembly, a radio signal source, and an ON/OFF switch. A separate remote control device for radio communication with the electronics component includes a second signaling means to notify the fisherman of actuation of the signal system.
