If you want to catch a fish I'd probably avoid dry flies for now. There won't be many hatches except for the occasional midges (look like mosquitoes). A good midge imitation is between 18 and 24 and all black (Griffiths Gnat is my usual go to). I think this would be your best bet if you want to catch on the dry. Don't recommend it, but you might get lucky.

Most fish this time of year will be hugging bottom. I'd run a small chironomid or other nymph alongside a bloodworm/san juan worm.

Icky Fly Works' Winter Pack should give you some good ideas: http://www.ickyflyworks.ca/index.php?cPath=32

Streamers may work on warmer days.
