I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops with the first real effort focused on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would only make a big move if those places truly look empty.

What anglers can target

The current fish list for Middle Gresham Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which makes it reasonable to try weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.

How I would spend the first few hours

Before I made the drive to Middle Gresham Lake, I would bring a couple of dependable baits, fish the best-looking water I can reach, and pay attention to what the first few bites have in common, and I would make sure the current Wisconsin fishing regulations do not add a special rule for this water.
