You will find Mayflower Lake in Forest County, where it is classified as a lake and the published measurements are about 16 acres and a maximum depth of 5 feet, and that is a much better place to start than pretending every lake fishes the same.

I would avoid overthinking this one right out of the gate with the first real effort focused on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I started running around looking for something better.
What is actually listed here
The species information for Mayflower Lake is still incomplete in the current inventory; that keeps the page honest, even if it means there is less to say right now, and rather than hauling gear for every fish in the state.
My first-day plan
If I were starting from scratch on Mayflower Lake, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, then I would check the current Wisconsin rules before the first cast.
