I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be and the first places I would give a fair shot are the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.
The species on record
For fishing, the current record for Tomahawk Lake shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering 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.
What I would do first
If I were putting together a simple plan for Tomahawk Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, and I would check the current regulations before keeping anything.
