For a new-to-me lake like this, simple beats clever by spending the early part of the day on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and if nothing happens, the next move should change the kind of water, not just the scenery.
The present inventory shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch at Little Ripley Lake; and that gives me a simple starting point with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and find out which part of the species list is actually active that day.
If I were headed to Little Ripley Lake tomorrow, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would make sure the current DNR rules match the species I am actually fishing for.
