I would keep the first trip pretty simple and the first places I would give a fair shot are the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and I would keep whatever works instead of changing it just because the next spot looks different.
Recorded fish species
On the species side, Spring Pond currently has Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch on record; which makes it reasonable to try weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and give the plan a fair shot before abandoning it.
My basic approach
If we were fishing Spring Pond together, I would bring a couple of dependable baits, fish the best-looking water I can reach, and pay attention to what the first few bites have in common, then I would make one last stop at the Wisconsin DNR rules before calling the trip ready.
