I remember reading a old Fred Noddin article in AO about bushwacking into remote brook trout lakes. With him saying something along the lines of the first hole drilled is the most important, because if its full of backswimmers there would be no fish in it. Wanted to see if others had the same expereince with shrimp.

Went looking a few years ago in that area he was writing about, backswimmers and bugs galore but not a single rise (summer time) friend that had been in there the winter before said when he punched holes, found tons of boatmen and some jaw dropping brookies basically swimming right by the hole. He estimates some brookies were 24-30"s in length... which i find hard to believe, but you never know!
