ewest, yes we ice fish at night on local lakes for walleye, but mostly catch burbot.
Bill, pond is 180 feet x about 50 feet, currently holding 13 feet of water. Pond is now 4 years old, excavated with track hoe, very steep sides, one end is gradual slope to let the moose get out. Originally planted with rainbows which survived over two years, then winter killed in my absence. I did stock G.Lacustrus when the trout were about 14". I never saw a sign of them after that. The pond was fishless for over a year. When I returned to my property this summer, the pond was full of scuds. I now have about a dozen rainbows and some brookies.
