The first trip does not need a giant tackle plan with a simple look at shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and if nothing happens, the next move should change the kind of water, not just the scenery.
Recorded species at West Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so the first trip would at least account for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and find out which part of the species list is actually active that day.
If I had a few hours to figure out West Lake, I would rather learn one shoreline, bay, point, or break than spend the whole day running around, then I would check the latest Wisconsin regulation details before the day starts.
