Fish: Striped bass, Largemouth bass, Bluegill, Channel catfish, Yellow perch, White bass are what is listed in lake Norman. I would target any of them this time of year, but then again, I'm from Maine and the only fish I have off that list are LM bass and yellow perch. Maybe some one else will weigh in who knows more about fishing NC in the winter. Fish, especially warm water fish, become more lethargic in the cold winter water. Fishing deeper edges, 15-20 feet deep might serve you better this time of year than fishing in the weeds on shore as the fish tend to seek warmer thermals within the water. Good luck, happy fishing.

Where I live, I could put my ice auger and other gear in my canoe, drag it out on the lake, drill a hole on each side, sit in the canoe and commence to fish. But it probably would be easier without the canoe. In places with open water, I’d suggest using slow, subtle presentations with small baits or lures. Fish deeper drop-offs and weed edges.
