I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops by giving the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach more than a couple of throwaway casts and I would only make a big move if those places truly look empty.
The current fish list for Canteen Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first trip would at least account for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.
Before I made the drive to Canteen Lake, I would rather learn one shoreline, bay, point, or break than spend the whole day running around, and I would make sure the current Wisconsin fishing regulations do not add a special rule for this water.
