I would rather learn one piece of this water than rush through ten and I would start where I can clearly see or understand the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would take a couple of bites in one type of water over a dozen pretty spots with no life.
What swims here
I do not have enough solid fish data for Long Lake to name a target with confidence; that means i would check current dnr lake information before buying bait for one particular fish, and before i start chasing random reports.
A simple way to approach it
For an uncomplicated day on Long 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 confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
