Lovejoy Lake is one of the lakes mapped in Sawyer County and the best numbers we have right now are about 77 acres and a maximum depth of 24 feet, so you can decide whether to fish it slow or break the day into a few different areas.

I would start with a few obvious areas and make the lake prove I need more by working shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
Fish to think about
The water-specific species list for Lovejoy Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and save the extra tackle until there is a reason to use it.
Where I would put my time
For the opening trip to Lovejoy Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, then I would verify the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
