Make sure you check the rules for whatever lake or pond you intend to fish.  Not sure if it's legal everywhere.

If you fish at night, its well worth the money to buy a couple of these tip up lights.

Yep.  I love ice fishing at night.  Great excuse to get out of the house!

You can only fish Winni and other lake trout/salmon lakes for two hours after sunset. If you get a ticket it's an automatic year suspension, which means you won't be able to fish any derbies.

You can fish Winni and the other trout/salmon lakes all night long if you want.  You just can't keep trout two hours after sunset.  Spent many a night out on winni jiggin cusk and white perch...good stuff.  ;)

Fishing walleye through the ice at night is very common around my town.
