The ONLY time I don't use them ice fishing is when I'm jigging!
I've been using them for 5+ years now, and the ONLY times I get a gut-hooked fish is when a very hungry bass literally inhales the bait.
Other than that I get 97-99% lip/jaw hookups.
The only trouble you may face is if you use them on a steel leader for pike. That's when you need a good hook remover!.
Depending on the size of the bait, I have a wide selection of hook sizes as well. You wouln't want to fish a pin minnow on a size #7 hook, or a #1 on a pike shiner.
It's worth giving a try, but just like bait fishing the salt, you don't "set" the hook, but just apply tension on the line and let it set itself.
