Long Lake is one of the lakes mapped in Waupaca County with the available water data listing about 112 acres and a maximum depth of 76 feet, and those numbers are a useful reality check before you start making a fishing plan.

I would start with a few obvious areas and make the lake prove I need more and I would start where I can clearly see or understand shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because good fishing usually gets simpler once one clue starts repeating.
Fish to think about
The water-specific species list for Long Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Lake Trout, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, and Northern Pike, plus 5 more; so the first few setups I pack would cover weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and stick with what produces signs of life.
Where I would put my time
For the opening trip to Long Lake, I would fish the places that make sense for the species on the list and avoid chasing every rumor I heard online, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
