Spring Lake sits in Forest County and is listed as a lake with the current lake record giving us about 4 acres and a maximum depth of 20 feet, which is enough information to keep the first trip grounded and realistic.

On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try with a little time spent on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because the water itself will tell you more than a long list of generic fishing tips.
Fish you may run into
The current inventory lists Northern Pike for Spring Lake; so I would build the first part of the day around weed lines and baitfish areas for pike or musky, and give the plan a fair shot before abandoning it.
How I would break it down
If I wanted to learn Spring Lake without overdoing it, I would make every move change one big thing, like depth or cover, instead of just driving to another pretty spot, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
