I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance and I would make the opening plan about shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because a few careful stops usually teach you more than a pile of random casts.

Fish recorded in this water

The current Chain Lakes record does not give us a fish list I would treat as complete; so if a certain species is the whole reason for the trip, i would verify it with a current exact-water source first, and and leave the rest of the plan flexible.

An easy starting plan

For a first trip to Chain Lakes, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, then I would read the current Wisconsin DNR rules so nothing about the trip is based on an old limit.
