This Bolivar County water is recorded as Lost Lake, a lake, and I would spend the opening part of the trip around one sheltered piece of water to size up the first few bites before making a longer move. I would give one short piece of water enough time to tell me whether the opening plan deserves more attention, because random movement makes unfamiliar water harder to read.
Lost Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume
Surface area, maximum depth, and storage are not well documented for Lost Lake, so the better first step is to watch the water level around the first section and avoid borrowing numbers from another body of water. Until I know the size of Lost Lake better, I would work one manageable section of bank instead of trying to solve the entire lake from the bank or ramp.
Fishing This Water
The fishery at Lost Lake is lightly documented, so I would use one versatile setup carrying a jig, worm, and float and use the first few bites as the beginning of the species list. The first fish from Lost Lake can narrow the plan as I read the first pattern without turning a simple first trip into constant lure rotation.
A Practical Lost Lake Game Plan
I would approach Lost Lake by choosing one promising section of water, one target, and a small tackle selection, then move the simplest thing first and make the next move only for a specific reason. If one straightforward section of water becomes the first reliable area on Lost Lake, I would stop searching randomly and fish it properly, which gives the next decision a real reason behind it.
