I would rather fish a handful of good-looking spots well and I would begin around shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because good fishing usually gets simpler once one clue starts repeating.
The fishing side of the page
The fish tied to this exact Diamond Lake record include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which keeps me focused on 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.
A laid-back first trip
If I wanted the first trip to Diamond Lake to actually teach me something, I would make the day about finding one repeatable clue instead of collecting waypoints, then I would check the latest Wisconsin regulation details before the day starts.
