Every year I recover dozens of fishing lures using this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BixpWJeqEY It works in places where it isn't always freezing too.

I am adept at pitching, under hand, and side arm casting so I rarely loose one. I am also bad to use med / heavy poles and braded line so I can muscle out of most snages without breaking off. At his temps, I would feed critters, run the line, and get back inside PDQ- hats off to him. “What’s good for me may not be good for the weak minded.” Captain Gus McCrae- Texas Rangers
