If this were my first time here, I would keep the plan basic with a little time spent on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.

Species worth planning around

The fish data for Moon Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would build the first part of the day around weeds and easy cover for panfish and weed lines and baitfish areas for pike or musky, and keep the first trip from getting too complicated.

A practical first pass

If the goal were simply to get a feel for Moon Lake, I would make every move change one big thing, like depth or cover, instead of just driving to another pretty spot, and I would check the current regulations before keeping anything.
