Ice hole cover

An ice fishing hole cover comprising:

• a one-piece cover body having a top surface, a bottom surface, and an outer most peripheral edge surface surrounding said cover body, said cover body having a thickness between said top surface and said bottom surface of less than 1 inch, said cover body composed of a transparent material capable of supporting the user's weight full over said ice hole;
• a fishing line access having teardrop shaped configuration, said fishing line access extending through said cover body from said top surface to said bottom surface for receiving a fishing line therethrough, said fishing line access having a size sufficiently small to prevent keys and cell phones from passing therethrough;
• a fishing line removal guide extending from said fishing line access to said outer most peripheral edge surface of said cover body to permit removal of said cover body from an ice-fishing hole without disturbing a fishing line extending therethrough;
• a set of finger accessible vent holes, said set of vent holes sized for allowing air movement through said cover body to help prevent said ice hole from freezing or closing up while allowing a user's finger to extend therethrough to enable the gripping support of said cover body;
• and
• a wire holder comprising a set of adjacent protrusions that are individually spaced from each other with the protrusions located an offset angle with said fishing line removal guide and said line access located on an opposing side of the cover body, said protrusions having surfaces for engagement such that the fishing line is interwoven between the protrusions.

An ice fishing hole cover comprising:

• a one-piece cover body having a top surface, a bottom surface, and an outer most peripheral edge surface surrounding said cover body, said cover body having a thickness between said top surface and said bottom surface of less than one inch, said cover body composed of a transparent polymer plastic capable of supporting a full weight up to 400 lbs over said ice hole;
• a fishing line access having teardrop shaped configuration, said fishing line access extending through said cover body from said top surface to said bottom surface for receiving a fishing line therethrough, said fishing line access having a size sufficiently small to prevent keys and cell phones from passing therethrough;
• a fishing line removal guide extending from said fishing line access to said outer. most peripheral edge surface of said cover body to permit removal of said cover body from an ice-fishing hole without disturbing a fishing line extending therethrough;
• a set of finger accessible vent holes located within the outer most peripheral edge surface of said cover body, said set of vent holes sized for allowing air movement through said cover body to help prevent said ice hole from freezing or closing up while allowing a user's finger to extend therethrough to enable the gripping support of said cover body;
• a wire holder comprising a set of protrusions that are proximate and individually spaced from each other with the protrusions located in-line with said fishing line removal guide and said line access located on an opposing side of the cover body, said protrusions having surfaces for engagement such that the fishing line is interwoven between the protrusions. and
• a circular shaped protruding member extending from said bottom surface of said cover body, said protruding member having an outer peripheral surface that directly and matingly engages with an inner peripheral surface of an ice fishing hole to provide for a one-step installation of the ice hole cover.
