I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be by checking the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would only make a big move if those places truly look empty.

The species on record

For fishing, the current record for Camp Lake shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first fishing plan would include weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.

What I would do first

If I were putting together a simple plan for Camp Lake, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, then the only homework left is checking the current Wisconsin season, bag, and size rules.
