The smart first move here is to keep the day manageable and I would make sure I actually fish shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before changing five things at once and losing track of what actually mattered.
Species already connected to this water
Fish recorded for Nebish Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Yellow Perch; and that is enough to put some time into weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stay flexible if the water tells me something else.
The first trip does not need to be fancy
If I only had one day to learn Nebish Lake, I would make a short plan, fish it honestly, and change areas only when the water gives me a reason, then I would double-check seasons and limits because the fish list on this page is not the rule book.
