You could always give the plastic coated line a try.  It doesnt freeze and very rarly knots.  Its expensive stuff but gets rid of the knot headaches.

I've never known you to have any downtime between flags!
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable,
a perpetual series of occasions for hope.
