jrc and Idt have it right..We spent 4 years on a mooring as well..in the ocean..on the lake you don't have to deal with tides and winds, so it should be much easier on the lake. Definately point into the wind no matter what kind of boat you have.
We found the biggest asset to picking up a mooring is using a mast buoy.
I attached a picture, I hope it worked.. It makes it so easy to pick up the mooring line, especially if you have a high freeboard.
