I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance by putting the first hour into one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break before I started digging through the tackle box for a magic answer.
The species record attached to Birch Island Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and that makes me think first about weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and save the extra tackle until there is a reason to use it.
For a first trip to Birch Island Lake, I would make every move change one big thing, like depth or cover, instead of just driving to another pretty spot, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
