I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops and I would make the opening plan about shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I started digging through the tackle box for a magic answer.

What anglers can target

I do not have a dependable fish list for South Fish Lake yet; that is one of those cases where a quick dnr check is worth more than a guess, and and keep everything else in reserve until i need it.

How I would spend the first few hours

Before I made the drive to South Fish Lake, I would give the easy-to-read cover and depth changes a fair shot before trying anything fancy, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
