I would spend more time watching the water than changing baits with a little time spent on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach because the easiest way to waste a day is to keep moving without learning anything.
The fish list
The fish currently listed for Upper First Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would build the first part of the day around weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and avoid chasing a totally different kind of fishing without a reason.
What I would try before anything fancy
If this were my day on Upper First 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 verify any special water rules before deciding what can go in the cooler.
