I would rather get two useful clues than make twenty random stops with a little time spent on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I spent the rest of the day chasing somebody else's old fishing report.
The current fish list for Tug Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Walleye, and Yellow Perch; which is enough for me to plan around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and let current conditions settle the details.
Before I made the drive to Tug Lake, I would fish a few sensible areas, remember where the life is, and stop forcing a pattern that is not there, then I would confirm the current Wisconsin rules for the species I plan to target.
