I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance by checking what is happening around the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because a few careful stops usually teach you more than a pile of random casts.
Fish recorded in this water
The species record attached to Tilleda Pond 53 includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch; so I would make room in the tackle box for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and leave room to adjust if the first idea is wrong.
An easy starting plan
For a first trip to Tilleda Pond 53, I would keep the trip flexible enough to move, but not so restless that I never learn a spot, then I would read the current Wisconsin DNR rules so nothing about the trip is based on an old limit.
