On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try by spending the early part of the day on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I let one slow spot convince me the whole lake is dead.
Fish you may run into
The current inventory lists Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch for Sunken Lake; and that gives me a simple starting point with weeds and easy cover for panfish, and keep the rest of the day loose.
How I would break it down
If I wanted to learn Sunken Lake without overdoing it, I would start with a simple plan and only add complexity if the fish make me, and I would still look at the current Wisconsin regulations before fishing.
