I would start broad, then slow down once something starts making sense and I would begin around the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would keep whatever works instead of changing it just because the next spot looks different.

What the current record shows

There is not a reliable fish list attached to Boot Lake right now; if you are going specifically for one fish, confirm it before you make the drive, and and let the water decide whether that plan holds up.

How I would fish it

For somebody fishing Boot Lake for the first time, I would start with a simple plan and only add complexity if the fish make me, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
