I would avoid overthinking this one right out of the gate by making an honest pass along one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break and if nothing happens, the next move should change the kind of water, not just the scenery.
What is actually listed here
At North Spirit Lake, the current fish record includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; so I would keep the tackle centered on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and avoid turning a simple trip into a gear-hauling contest.
My first-day plan
If I were starting from scratch on North Spirit Lake, I would keep one shallow option and one deeper option ready so the day does not depend on a single idea, then I would check the latest Wisconsin regulation details before the day starts.
