I would keep the first trip pretty simple with most of my time going to the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.

Recorded fish species

The fish side of the Lake Pacawa record is still thin; for a first visit, i would keep the tackle flexible and avoid building the whole day around one species, and and leave the rest of the plan flexible.

My basic approach

If we were fishing Lake Pacawa together, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, then I would read the current Wisconsin DNR rules so nothing about the trip is based on an old limit.
