I would make the first trip about learning the water, not conquering it with the first real effort focused on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
For this exact water, the recorded fish are Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and save the extra tackle until there is a reason to use it.
If a buddy asked me how to start on Paulson 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 the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
