I would avoid overthinking this one right out of the gate with most of my time going to shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
At Birch Lake, the current fish record includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; so the first fishing plan would include weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and save the extra tackle until there is a reason to use it.
If I were starting from scratch on Birch Lake, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
