A closed sky with even light today, with a steady WNW wind with the glass holding level. On Little Moon Lake, work the first drop-off and weed lines first. Bank on the evening and treat the rest as bonus. Push the good hours hard and rest through the dead ones. Fish follow the bait in autumn, so find one to find the other.

Little Moon Lake sits within Algoma in Ontario. Elevation runs to 230 metres. This is sizeable water at about 1.10 sq km, and a boat opens up most of it. The margin runs to about 7.8 km in total. It is among the larger waters listed here for Algoma. The nearest town is Elliot Lake, 17 km away. Blind River is 26 km and Thessalon 58 km. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.
Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Open biodiversity records for Algoma list walleye, northern pike, Iowa darter, yellow perch and white sucker. Read it as a county summary, not a water-by-water list. The shape of Little Moon Lake rewards a slow walk along one bank.
Long-term averages put July at about 18°C and January near -11°C. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Break-up comes around late April, and the run that follows is short and strong. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about late April until roughly early December. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. Anyone fishing Little Moon Lake regularly works to that calendar.
Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. No slipway, car park or made path shows up nearby in mapping, so treat access as rough. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. If the gate is shut, Caribou Lake at 1.8 km is the nearest alternative. Treat access at Little Moon Lake as something to verify.
