If this were my first time here, I would keep the plan basic and I would make the opening plan about shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would take a couple of bites in one type of water over a dozen pretty spots with no life.
The fish data for Long Slough includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which is enough for me to plan around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and make the first hour useful instead of random.
If the goal were simply to get a feel for Long Slough, I would fish a few sensible areas, remember where the life is, and stop forcing a pattern that is not there, then I would confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
