You might have a shot at some bass still...although the water temps are VERY cold, just a bit above freezing.  Even for cold water species, the bite has shut down.  Your best bet is bait...clams.  Like PED579 says, very tiny pieces of clam deadsticked out is your best option.

The weather probably will be better than the fishing, but anytime you can get out and fish is good.

Good Luck!

Good answer P-Man...  ;D

Hook size, I would use a 2/0 or 3/0 this time of year on a hi-lo rig.

I hope this helps.  And Oh yeah a lot of patience... t^

Happy Catching
