I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance by making an honest pass along the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I started running around looking for something better.
Fish recorded in this water
The current Sugarbush Lake record does not give us a fish list I would treat as complete; before i planned around a specific fish, i would check the latest exact-water dnr information, and and then let the actual bites decide what comes next.
An easy starting plan
For a first trip to Sugarbush Lake, I would pick a small part of the lake and try to understand it before worrying about everything else, and I would still look at the current Wisconsin regulations before fishing.
