Start with a short rotation through accessible bank cover, vegetation, and nearby deeper water. Give each spot a few deliberate casts before moving on.
For Buck Lake, the fish list currently includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would build the first part of the day around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and then let the actual bites decide what comes next.
If I were taking a friend to Buck Lake, I would make every move change one big thing, like depth or cover, instead of just driving to another pretty spot, then I would check the current Wisconsin rules before the first cast.
