The smart first move here is to keep the day manageable with the first real effort focused on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because the easiest way to waste a day is to keep moving without learning anything.
The current record for Mud Lake does not have a solid species list; i would rather give you a short honest page than a long one full of guesses, and without assuming the bite will be easy just because the fish are listed.
If I only had one day to learn Mud 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, then I would verify any special water rules before deciding what can go in the cooler.
