Are comprants destroying lake fishing for trout?

Last year was the first dud in 8 yrs for me at Amwell. Last weekend workout out well and on Sunday my son and I landed five rainbows before noon. Then for the first time this year the devil birds showed up. After lunch no one here caught much of anything. They're here again today and despite yesterday's temps warming the water, no ones having any luck including me. I've watched them yank trout left and right and since last year was the first time I've seen them here, and since their arrival last wknd seems to have ended the action, it seems logical that they're the cause. Anyone share the same conclusion?
