Up in Marinette County, Long Lake is a lake and the basic lake data comes in at about 16 acres and a maximum depth of 35 feet, and those numbers are a useful reality check before you start making a fishing plan.

I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops and I would begin around 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 anglers can target
The current fish list for Long Lake includes Largemouth Bass, and Northern Pike; and that gives me a simple starting point with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weed lines and baitfish areas for pike or musky, and stick with what produces signs of life.
How I would spend the first few hours
Before I made the drive to Long Lake, I would start with a simple plan and only add complexity if the fish make me, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
