I would not try to turn the first trip into a science project and the first places I would give a fair shot are the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.

The current species list

Right now, the inventory connects Mitchell Lake with Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; which makes it reasonable to try 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.

How I would learn the lake

Going into a first day on Mitchell 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 check the current regulations before keeping anything.
