I sure would try jigging. A tube, bucktail or maribou or maybe even some spoons. Do you use a fishfinder? I would find the fish and drop vertically to them. Look for underwater points, humps, or drop offs near deeper water. The warmer the water gets the deeper I would look.

most of the lakers are feeding within a couple feet of bottom.  some come up for suspended feeding, but concentrate your efforts on fluttering right on the bottom.

I've jigged up large togue.  This technique does work!  Even using small curly tail grubs on a small head is productive.
