Default Suggestions re flies

Well, with this weather I just can't put the fly rod away yet. I'm going to head down south to some streams/rivers still open. I don't need locations, got a few. But I'm wondering what I should be using for flies, and where is the best place to throw them. I'm assuming too late for terrestrials or dries... streamers are the best bet, woolly bugger sorts, etc., and look for pools, undercuts, etc. Your thoughts?

Drift nymphs, Prince, evil weevils, copper John's, pheasant tails, that kinda stuff. Still might be able to get away with some pmds and dries of that nature. Find the big dirty pools as fish have more than likely started moving into their wintering holes. Also stone flies and streamers. 1/4# leech, wooly buggers, clousers. That kinda stuff. Pm me with more questions if you need.
