I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be with the first real effort focused on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before making the day harder than it needs to be.
For fishing, the current record for Finger Lake shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which makes it reasonable to try weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and keep the day practical and easy to change.
If I were putting together a simple plan for Finger Lake, I would bring a couple of dependable baits, fish the best-looking water I can reach, and pay attention to what the first few bites have in common, then I would check the current Wisconsin rules before the first cast.
