I have seen that happen on 2 different lakes, one was winter killed and one wasn't.

The one lake winterkilled about 12 yrs ago. I tried it about 6 yrs ago to see if it came back and all the holes we drilled had a few hundred shrimp come out of each. I thought if there was fish they would eat the shrimp, sure enough fished all the old favorite spots and didnt catch or see any fish other than one tiny pike.

The other lake was cross lk last yr, the few holes we drilled only had a couple shrimp come out, fishing was good and a buddy decided to drill a few holes shallower, the water looked black when he lifted the auger, there was shrimp everywhere.

I was thinking if there is tons of shrimp then there is probably no fish, but after last yr i think otherwise
