Can pine lake be fished from shore? Is the fishing good?
Is there a campground?

I used to fish it a fair bit in the summer, but it got crazy busy so I've only been ice-fishing there for quite a few years. Yes to the campgrounds -- Leisure Campground (?) at the north end, with camping spots plus cabin rentals, boat rentals etc. Scotty's (?) down the east side, with camping spots plus boats. Maybe others.

As for shore-fishing... not really. You can fish for pike or perch from the docks at the campgrounds, but the water is pretty shallow and weedy. Boat is the way to go, but the lake is very popular with waterskiers and jetskiers, so it can be annoying in a small boat. That's why I stopped going there. Lots of small pike. Lots of walleye if you know the spots. I've had trouble catching perch there because the lake has a quabillion shrimp in it, but some people have good luck.
