My first day here would stay uncomplicated by giving the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach more than a couple of throwaway casts before I let one slow spot convince me the whole lake is dead.
What the fish list tells you
The exact-water list for McNutt Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and that is enough to put some time into weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep the rest of the day loose.
Where I would start
If I had never seen McNutt Lake before, I would make a short plan, fish it honestly, and change areas only when the water gives me a reason, then the only homework left is checking the current Wisconsin season, bag, and size rules.
