This Oneida County water is Torpy Lake, a lake and the best current size-and-depth record is about 35 acres and a maximum depth of 24 feet, which gives you a decent picture of what kind of day on the water you are planning.

I would make the first trip about learning the water, not conquering it by giving shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank more than a couple of throwaway casts and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.
What you can fish for
For this exact water, the recorded fish are Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and that is enough to put some time into weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and leave room to adjust if the first idea is wrong.
Keeping the first trip simple
If a buddy asked me how to start on Torpy Lake, I would rather learn one shoreline, bay, point, or break than spend the whole day running around, and I would check the current regulations before keeping anything.
