I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be by spending the early part of the day on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before changing five things at once and losing track of what actually mattered.
For fishing, the current record for Helen Lake shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and stay flexible if the water tells me something else.
If I were putting together a simple plan for Helen Lake, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would pull up the current Wisconsin fishing regulations before leaving home.
