Start with a short rotation through accessible bank cover, vegetation, and nearby deeper water. Give each spot a few deliberate casts before moving on.

Fish in the current inventory

For East Mitchell Lake, the fish list currently includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would make room in the tackle box for weeds and easy cover for panfish and weed lines and baitfish areas for pike or musky, and save the extra tackle until there is a reason to use it.

A no-nonsense way to start

If I were taking a friend to East Mitchell Lake, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
