I would keep the first trip pretty simple by checking what is happening around shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would give the fish a chance to show me whether they want shallow cover or nearby depth.
The fish side of the Ross Lake record is still thin; that is one of those cases where a quick dnr check is worth more than a guess, and without assuming the bite will be easy just because the fish are listed.
If we were fishing Ross Lake together, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, and I would make a quick regulation check part of the trip plan, not an afterthought at the ramp.
