On the chart, Moor Lake draws 20 acres inside 1.1 miles of shoreline. Index 1.7 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Call it 0.5 mi long. You'll find it in Renfrew County. The nearest mapped water is Roney Lake, 1 mi to the west.
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 2 to 8 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 10 ft before dropping to 3 to 10 ft for winter. Fall northern pike concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 5 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.
