Whitefish Lake is a named lake in Oneida County and the water facts we have show about 199 acres and a maximum depth of 33 feet, and those numbers are a useful reality check before you start making a fishing plan.

I would keep the first trip pretty simple by making an honest pass along shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because good fishing usually gets simpler once one clue starts repeating.
Recorded fish species
On the species side, Whitefish Lake currently has Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Muskellunge, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Walleye, plus 1 more on record; so I would keep the tackle centered on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and points, breaks, and wind-pushed edges for walleye, and stick with what produces signs of life.
My basic approach
If we were fishing Whitefish Lake together, I would keep one shallow option and one deeper option ready so the day does not depend on a single idea, and I would not rely on an old screenshot or somebody's memory for current limits.
