I was there about a month ago. As the water warms up the fish will probably go a little deeper than they were then. Any of the bays in the narrows section of Shoshone have been good to me in the past. We caught and released around 80 lakers in four days of fishing mornings and evenings.
Anchored we use 3" white tube jigs. We build non leaded heads by using a jig hook and then stuffing two or three 1/8oz steel weights in the tube with the hook. 1/4oz for shallow, 3/8oz for deeper. If you are good with a tube jig this is a fun way to fish for them especially when there is no wind in the evenings.
Most of the time with my wife and kid we just trolled wobblers.
Remember to pinch your barbs. I forgot on one and the ranger almost gave me $110 ticket. He let me go with a warning thank goodness.
Here is a video that will give you an idea what it is like.
