For a new-to-me lake like this, simple beats clever by working one shallow area, one stretch of cover, and one deeper break and once one type of water shows life, I would look for more of the same.
Fish tied to this lake
The present inventory shows Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Walleye, plus 1 more at Upper Post Lake; and I would begin by covering weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and avoid chasing a totally different kind of fishing without a reason.
How I would keep it simple
If I were headed to Upper Post Lake tomorrow, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, and I would pull up the current Wisconsin fishing regulations before leaving home.
