Bayfield County is home to Little Island Lake, a mapped lake and its basic numbers come out to about 49 acres and a maximum depth of 15 feet, and that is plenty of context for deciding how much of the water you can realistically cover.

I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be with my first few stops centered on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before changing five things at once and losing track of what actually mattered.
The species on record
For fishing, the current record for Little Island Lake shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first few setups I pack would cover weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep one good idea at a time instead of changing everything.
What I would do first
If I were putting together a simple plan for Little Island Lake, I would fish the places that make sense for the species on the list and avoid chasing every rumor I heard online, then I would double-check seasons and limits because the fish list on this page is not the rule book.
