Mill Pond is a lake on the Washburn County map with the available water data listing about 9 acres and a maximum depth of 12 feet, so at least you are starting with real numbers instead of guessing from a map.

I would not try to turn the first trip into a science project by putting the first hour into the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would only make a big move if those places truly look empty.
The current species list
Right now, the inventory connects Mill Pond with Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and that makes me think first about weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and see what actually shows up before changing directions.
How I would learn the lake
Going into a first day on Mill Pond, I would keep the first hour organized enough that a bite actually teaches me something, and I would make sure the current Wisconsin fishing regulations do not add a special rule for this water.
