I would make the first trip about learning the water, not conquering it with a simple look at shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.
What you can fish for
For this exact water, the recorded fish are Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first trip would at least account for 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.
Keeping the first trip simple
If a buddy asked me how to start on Monday Lake, I would start with obvious fish-holding water and let actual bites tell me whether to stay or move, and I would check the current regulations before keeping anything.
