Big Moon Lake is a 187-acre lake in Clayton, Barron County, offering public boat launch access for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboats. The lake features a maximum depth of 48 feet and is surrounded primarily by year-round residential properties. With low water clarity, this is best suited for anglers and recreational paddlers familiar with local conditions rather than those seeking pristine scenic paddling.
The lake supports a healthy fishery including musky, northern pike, walleye, largemouth bass, and panfish, making it popular with anglers. The public boat landing provides standard access for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorboats. Paddlers should be prepared for residential waterfront traffic and plan accordingly, especially during peak seasons.
