For a new-to-me lake like this, simple beats clever by checking what is happening around one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break and if nothing happens, the next move should change the kind of water, not just the scenery.
The present inventory shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch at Devils Lake; so I would make room in the tackle box for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and avoid turning a simple trip into a gear-hauling contest.
If I were headed to Devils Lake tomorrow, I would keep the trip flexible enough to move, but not so restless that I never learn a spot, then I would check the latest Wisconsin regulation details before the day starts.
