hey there fire,
i didnt see anyone mention dropshotting. you may want to try that if the fish are holding deep. go to yoru sport shop ask them about a drop shot rig. simply put a sinker on the end of your line and the hook about 8 incehs or so above the sinker. use a plastic worm and youll have to vary colors. then get some smelly jelly or whatever for scent. cast out from shore and periodically pop it up. the sinker should keep the line stationary and the worm should just move up and down. the fish will usually be on the hook when you pull up since it is cold. sometimes come up and mouth it so when you drop your rod tip you will have slack just before it hits bottom. hope this helps too.
