I can see where you're coming from. Maybe the coming cold will at least diminish the skiers and obnoxious PWC of the summer. Then at least you only have similar interest fishermen to deal with, albeit in noisy stinkpots and sometimes with bad manners.
Do you have a personal ranking of fish you prefer to catch, or is it just the variety that can be had during any particular single trip? Or is it size and/or numbers that matters?
About the best I've done here for variety is working both sides of the dam many years ago over 2 days in a pontoon. Keeper size stripers, perch, bass varieties like smallmouth and even a white, also a walleye and something that broke off on the deep dam side. Then rainbows, cats, perch, different bass varieties, and a snagged carp at the bottom cold water outlet area on the other side.
I also caught a double (front and back hooks) of 2 different species of bass on the SAME crankbait on another trip, but that's only happened once in my life....
