Up in Washburn County, Bodins Lake is a lake and the best numbers we have right now are about 15 acres and a maximum depth of 28 feet, and that gives you a simple feel for the lake before tackle choices even matter.

I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops by working the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because the water itself will tell you more than a long list of generic fishing tips.
What anglers can target
The current fish list for Bodins Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would pack with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and remember that a species list does not tell you exactly where the fish are.
How I would spend the first few hours
Before I made the drive to Bodins Lake, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
