Among the waters in Price County, Newman Lake is listed as a lake with the water profile currently listing about 90 acres and a maximum depth of 45 feet, and that is plenty of context for deciding how much of the water you can realistically cover.

My first day here would stay uncomplicated by working shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because the goal on day one is to learn a pattern, not prove you can fish the entire shoreline.
What the fish list tells you
The exact-water list for Newman Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep one good idea at a time instead of changing everything.
Where I would start
If I had never seen Newman Lake before, 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 sure the current DNR rules match the species I am actually fishing for.
