Fish in the current inventory
For Minnow Lake, the fish list currently includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would keep the tackle centered on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and leave room to adjust if the first idea is wrong.
A no-nonsense way to start
If I were taking a friend to Minnow Lake, I would keep one shallow option and one deeper option ready so the day does not depend on a single idea, then I would read the current Wisconsin DNR rules so nothing about the trip is based on an old limit.
