I would rather fish a handful of good-looking spots well with the first real effort focused on the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before changing five things at once and losing track of what actually mattered.

The fishing side of the page

The fish tied to this exact Vicks Lake record include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and stay flexible if the water tells me something else.

A laid-back first trip

If I wanted the first trip to Vicks Lake to actually teach me something, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, and I would pull up the current Wisconsin fishing regulations before leaving home.
