A non-freezing liquid is poured from a supply into the container arranged such that the fishing line can move through the container when pulled with the non-freezing liquid preventing the line from freezing to the container or to the holes therein. The line may have a plug for butting against the bottom one of the holes to temporarily prevent the escape of liquid prior to the container being dropped into the ice fishing hole when the water will prevent the escape of the liquid.
