My first day here would stay uncomplicated with the first real effort focused on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I started digging through the tackle box for a magic answer.
What the fish list tells you
The exact-water list for Loon Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds and easy cover for panfish and weed lines and baitfish areas for pike or musky, and make the first hour useful instead of random.
Where I would start
If I had never seen Loon Lake before, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, then I would confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
