On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try with the first real effort focused on 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.
Fish you may run into
The current inventory lists Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Walleye, plus 1 more for Long Lake; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and stick with what produces signs of life.
How I would break it down
If I wanted to learn Long Lake without overdoing it, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
