The first one I can't help you with but as far as jigging goes I would suggest small crippled herrings, buckshots and good old ball head jigs. Dangling a minnow on a hook can also be very effective. As for the bungalows most of them have everything you need. Maybe a deck of cards or something like that when the fishing is slow.

By the time we get ice in southern Ontario I'm already up to my waist in snow here on the shores of lake Huron. Rather take care of the winterizing before that.
