I would avoid overthinking this one right out of the gate with the first real effort focused on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because a few careful stops usually teach you more than a pile of random casts.
The species information for Gilbert Lake is still incomplete in the current inventory; that keeps the page honest, even if it means there is less to say right now, and before worrying about anything fancy.
If I were starting from scratch on Gilbert Lake, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would make sure the current Wisconsin fishing regulations do not add a special rule for this water.
