For a new-to-me lake like this, simple beats clever by giving shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank more than a couple of throwaway casts because the easiest way to waste a day is to keep moving without learning anything.

Fish tied to this lake

The present inventory shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch at Lily Lake; and that is enough to put some time into weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and use the first few bites to narrow the plan.

How I would keep it simple

If I were headed to Lily Lake tomorrow, I would rather learn one shoreline, bay, point, or break than spend the whole day running around, then I would verify any special water rules before deciding what can go in the cooler.
