If you are looking at Long Lake, you are looking at a Chippewa County lake and the physical record currently shows about 28 acres and a maximum depth of 16 feet, and those numbers are a useful reality check before you start making a fishing plan.

The first trip does not need a giant tackle plan and I would make the opening plan about the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because good fishing usually gets simpler once one clue starts repeating.
The fishery on paper
Recorded species at Long Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; which is enough for me to plan around weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stick with what produces signs of life.
My game plan
If I had a few hours to figure out Long Lake, I would fish a few sensible areas, remember where the life is, and stop forcing a pattern that is not there, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
