My first day here would stay uncomplicated by checking what is happening around the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
What the fish list tells you
The exact-water list for Blue Mountain Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would make room in the tackle box for weeds and easy cover for panfish, and remember that a species list does not tell you exactly where the fish are.
Where I would start
If I had never seen Blue Mountain Lake before, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, then I would verify the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
