If this were my first time here, I would keep the plan basic with most of my time going to the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would keep whatever works instead of changing it just because the next spot looks different.

Species worth planning around

Fish species are not reliably filled in for Ketchum Lake yet; for a first visit, i would keep the tackle flexible and avoid building the whole day around one species, and and let the water decide whether that plan holds up.

A practical first pass

If the goal were simply to get a feel for Ketchum Lake, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
