Start with a short rotation through accessible bank cover, vegetation, and nearby deeper water. Give each spot a few deliberate casts before moving on.
For Devils Lake, the fish list currently includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and I would let that list point me toward weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid turning a simple trip into a gear-hauling contest.
If I were taking a friend to Devils Lake, 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.
