I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance by putting the first hour into shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.
The species record attached to Peppermill Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and that makes me think first about weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and remember that a species list does not tell you exactly where the fish are.
For a first trip to Peppermill Lake, I would make every move change one big thing, like depth or cover, instead of just driving to another pretty spot, then I would verify the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
