It's more the farmer fertilizer that causes it, and the lack of water circulation. Looking at pine Lake, it is surrounded by farmers fields that's drain into pine.

Pine Lake spent alot of money putting in a piped recirculation system, but that was years ago and it hasn't been in use the past 10ish years (I'm not sure it was ever in use to be honest).

Unfortunately the best way to "clean" these lakes is to drain them and essentially kill them. Then rebuild. But that will never happen .
