Fish in the current inventory
For Keowns Pond, the fish list currently includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch; so I would make room in the tackle box for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and give the plan a fair shot before abandoning it.
A no-nonsense way to start
If I were taking a friend to Keowns Pond, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
