Lakers as stated are down deep. 70 to 100 feet is about usual this time of year. Also the same for the big rainbows. You may get some in the evenings or early mornings closer to the surface. Troll a 4" long Apex. White/Silver, White/Blue, Silver/Blue, Silver/Green, or Black/Silver. Put on a banana weight about 5oz in line about 5-10 feet behind the lure. Troll it beside the boat for a bit and see what speed gives you the best action. Then let it down. It will usually get down about 10 to 20 feet depending on your speed. This is usually effective in the spring or fall. But hey you just never know there. I used to live down there and we caught nice fish at all times of the year.
What I'd do is stick one rod down low and if you have someone else in the boat you can give them a light rod with a "small" willowleaf that has red in it and a wedding ring. If there is kokanee around they'll go after that.
Good luck. Go catch yourself breakfast.
