Trick we used for late fall/early winter fishing in Montana is to rub guides with a thin layer of vasoline. U will need to reapply occasionally.

I've never tried it, but have been told WD-40 on the spool of line helps to keep the line from freezing. Worth a try.

I think the "KVD line conditioner" is supposed to help with that.
