I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance and I would build the day around the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I started running around looking for something better.
Fish recorded in this water
The species record attached to Bullhead Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; which gives me something real to work with around weeds and easy cover for panfish, and then let the actual bites decide what comes next.
An easy starting plan
For a first trip to Bullhead Lake, I would keep one shallow option and one deeper option ready so the day does not depend on a single idea, and I would still look at the current Wisconsin regulations before fishing.
