Schutt Lake is a lake on the Oconto County map with the water profile currently listing about 20 acres and a maximum depth of 15 feet, and that is plenty of context for deciding how much of the water you can realistically cover.

I would not try to turn the first trip into a science project by working the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because the goal on day one is to learn a pattern, not prove you can fish the entire shoreline.
The current species list
Right now, the inventory connects Schutt Lake with Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep one good idea at a time instead of changing everything.
How I would learn the lake
Going into a first day on Schutt Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, and I would make sure the current DNR rules match the species I am actually fishing for.
