Default Fishing Shuswap lake

Hey we have a cabin on the Shuswap arm of the lake and we were wondering if anyone had any tips about fishing near eagle bay? I have been out the last 2 mornings but only had a nock off. I was using a flasher with an apex trolled at 80 feet with a slip weight. Not asking for a honey hole but just asking for some help to catch a fish or 2
Thanks

Try 45-50 feet. I find the rainbows suspended at around that depth. Kokanee too

Thanks wildwoods. What are your favourite lures to use on the lake?

Just got back from 5 days fishing there, catching between 80' - 35 ft. While trolling around 2.3 mph. The popular hooks were anything chrome, most active was the gibbs ruby set. Good luck, I don't fish that part of the lake, wish I could help more.
