Trout Lake sits in Ashland County and is listed as a lake and the water facts we have show about 5 acres and a maximum depth of 28 feet, so the size of the job is pretty easy to understand before you go.

On a first visit, I would make a short list of places to try and I would build the day around the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I spent the rest of the day chasing somebody else's old fishing report.
Fish you may run into
The current inventory lists Brook Trout, Brown Trout, and Rainbow Trout for Trout Lake; which gives me something real to work with around cooler, deeper water for trout, and keep the first trip from getting too complicated.
How I would break it down
If I wanted to learn Trout Lake without overdoing it, I would start with obvious fish-holding water and let actual bites tell me whether to stay or move, then I would confirm the current Wisconsin rules for the species I plan to target.
