I get that, however the first hole seem to be running dry before we shut the pump off. That's why my instincts said to drill quite a ways further to get clear away from that bad strata, and accumulate a larger reserve above the pump, but I am ignorant of how these things work.I would think drilling deeper was not the problem (you have plenty of water), but the inability to put in a screen and gravel was.
In my area water is coming out our ears, there are many springs and spring fed creeks that have water all year and the water table seems quite high. We shouldn't have a problem with the amount of water, though I understand geology is totally unknown and changeable with location.
