Default winter fly fishing solutions?

It's about 10 degrees F here in Gallation CO
Montana right now. I hunt when it's below zero. So I don't mind
being out in the cold. But I don't fish because it drives me
nuts when the flyrod eyes fill with ice.

Is there any solution? Magic cuss words? Vaseline?
Anybody ever tie a rod up with huge spinning rod guides?
Battery-pack flyrod with a wire running up the middle?


I've had good luck with carrying a can of Pam (the spray-on cooking
oil) in my vest and applying as needed. Caveat: I've never tried this
with the temperature below the teens.
