I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops by checking shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would only make a big move if those places truly look empty.
The current fish list for Potter Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first fishing plan would include weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid hauling gear for every fish in Wisconsin.
Before I made the drive to Potter Lake, I would use the fish list and the lake's size as a guide, then let current conditions settle the details, then the only homework left is checking the current Wisconsin season, bag, and size rules.
