I've heard a rumor from a local that otters have cleaned out most of the fish in Eagle Creek around Sparta, is this true? Anybody fished there recently?

I used to fish in that exact area and always caught fish. Within 1 year it went from fairly good fishing to terrible. I tried fishing off and on several more times after and usually skunked or caught a sunfish or two. For me otter sightings and fewer fish catches happened at the same time so I don't know if its coincidence or not but its hard to say what else it would be as they're the only thing to change about Eagle Creek.
I haven't fished there for 2 years so maybe its starting to bounce back but last I saw it was pretty dismal.
