If this were my first time here, I would keep the plan basic by working the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would give the fish a chance to show me whether they want shallow cover or nearby depth.

Species worth planning around

Fish species are not reliably filled in for Mud Lake yet; until we have better data, i would keep species claims off the page, and and adjust only after the lake gives me a reason.

A practical first pass

If the goal were simply to get a feel for Mud Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, and I would make a quick regulation check part of the trip plan, not an afterthought at the ramp.
