On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try with my first few stops centered on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because good fishing usually gets simpler once one clue starts repeating.
The current inventory lists Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch for Hungry Lake; which gives me a good reason to start with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stick with what produces signs of life.
If I wanted to learn Hungry Lake without overdoing it, I would pick a small part of the lake and try to understand it before worrying about everything else, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
