East Lake bank access is doing well with some good catches of mid size browns. Wade the shoreline from East Lake CG Boat Ramp to the White Slide for good access to a number of fish. You’ll notice in the morning a lot of the browns jumping (same at Paulina) but once the light gets up they stop doing that as much. I do believe they are still close by, maybe sliding to a little deeper water but close enough to access by wading if you have a 50′ cast. You do, right?
Olive Mini Gulp and a Sir Sticks A lot can be fished under the strike indicator, or stripped on a Hover. Balanced Minnows and Balanced Leeches are good. 
I would use a Purple Chubby as the indicator just as happily as an Airlock or Oros. 
2 or 3 nymphs to choose would be the pink beaded spicy squirrel, an egg and a red holo jig. 
Tubers and Pontoons might access a few other fish the bank folks won’t, but honestly I’d just wade and keep moving and be quick, agile and mobile. I realize the average ago of my readership (hahaha) but let that statement be an inspiration. Quick. Agile. Mobile. Hell yes you are!
