An ice fishing assembly for urging a fishing line upwardly and downwardly includes a fishing rod. A box is provided. The box may be positioned on a support surface. A bracket is movably coupled to the box. A shaft is coupled to the bracket. The shaft is supported above the box. A plank is coupled to the shaft. The plank is supported above the box. The shaft acts as a fulcrum on the plank. A rod holder is coupled to the shaft. The rod holder engages the fishing rod. The plank engages a line on the fishing rod. The line is urged upwardly and downwardly by the plank.

According to an aspect, another ice fishing stand is disclosed and includes a base, a tip up arm, and a rod holder arm. The base is configured to be positioned about an ice-fishing hole, and has a receiving feature. The tip up arm is configured to hold a spool. The rod holder arm includes a rod holder that is configured to hold a fishing rod. The rod holder arm is releasably mountable to the receiving feature.

An ice fishing apparatus including a bucket assembly and an activation mechanism assembly. The bucket assembly includes a bucket with flap members hingedly attached to the top opening of the bucket. The bucket assembly has a spring to release the flap members. The activation assembly includes a spring biased mechanism with a trigger rod engaged thereto. The trigger rod has a notch to engage a fishing line with a hook. The spring biased mechanism is automatically released when the hook is bitten. The spring biased mechanism automatically sets the hook of a fishing rod.
