Long Lake is a lake on the Burnett County map with the water profile currently listing about 329 acres and a maximum depth of 13 feet, and those numbers are a useful reality check before you start making a fishing plan.

I would not try to turn the first trip into a science project by working one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break and I would take a couple of bites in one type of water over a dozen pretty spots with no life.
The current species list
Right now, the inventory connects Long Lake with Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stick with what produces signs of life.
How I would learn the lake
Going into a first day on Long Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, then I would confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
