I would avoid overthinking this one right out of the gate and I would build the day around one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break before I spent the rest of the day chasing somebody else's old fishing report.
What is actually listed here
At Landing Lake, the current fish record includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; which gives me something real to work with around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep the first trip from getting too complicated.
My first-day plan
If I were starting from scratch on Landing Lake, I would start with obvious fish-holding water and let actual bites tell me whether to stay or move, then I would confirm the current Wisconsin rules for the species I plan to target.
