The smart first move here is to keep the day manageable and the first places I would give a fair shot are the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach and that is usually enough to tell you whether to stay shallow or start looking farther out.

The first trip does not need to be fancy
If I only had one day to learn Young Lake, I would keep the tackle simple, pick a manageable section, and let the first signs of fish decide the next move, then I would verify the latest bag, size, and season information before fishing.
