Fish in the current inventory
For Galky Lake, the fish list currently includes Largemouth Bass; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.
A no-nonsense way to start
If I were taking a friend to Galky Lake, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, then the only homework left is checking the current Wisconsin season, bag, and size rules.
