I would not try to turn the first trip into a science project and I would make sure I actually fish shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and if nothing happens, the next move should change the kind of water, not just the scenery.
Right now, the inventory connects Shadow Lake with Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which tells me to think about weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and find out which part of the species list is actually active that day.
Going into a first day on Shadow Lake, I would spend less time changing lures and more time noticing depth, cover, water color, and where bait is showing, then I would check the latest Wisconsin regulation details before the day starts.
