On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try with most of my time going to shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before changing five things at once and losing track of what actually mattered.
The current inventory lists Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch for Barnes Lake; so the first fishing plan would include weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stay flexible if the water tells me something else.
If I wanted to learn Barnes Lake without overdoing it, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, and I would pull up the current Wisconsin fishing regulations before leaving home.
