Is that Lake Simcoe in Canada? If so i wouldnt know anything about a Creature living there.

But on a side note the picture looks fake.

Man. Every lake in the world has it's own monster apparently.

You'd think we'd have concrete evidence of ONE of them by now.

Looks fake, unfortunatly.

Looks fake to me too ... I was at Lake Simcoe 3 or 4 times this summer too!

South Saskatchewan River -Alberta
Kalamalka Lake - British Colombia
Kooteney Lake - British Colombia
Okenagan Lake- British Colombia
Upper and Lower Arrow Lakes - British Colombia
Skaha Lake- British Colombia

No...idea. It is especially hard to swallow that they are the same creature when you consider the distance seperating Ontario and British Colombia...that and the Rocky Mountain Range. laugh.gif

yah i know that some lakes are thought to be connected, but it's hard for me to believe that they are the same creature when no one seems to be able to get a good look to prove that....

Moe thinks that they are really big lobsters . These lobsters are ancient and wise and swim really fast. Moe even has a pic of one that he saw in Canada.

There is no way that we can know the sea serpents' ways of life until we capture one.Maybe they are able to travel long distances without getting exhausted.Maybe they don't even sleep. huh.gif It's probably a bunch a different creatures in the lakes.Maybe there is even caves and tunnels below the lake floor.Or like the natives say about them,they can take any animal physical form. blink.gif

True. Looks like the tourism is a very good bussiness. Maybe that's why we "have" monsters everywhere in the world.

I find it very unreal to a snake like creature to swim that way. Have you saw the way snakes swim? You are not able to see anything besides the head out of the water. That's why I'm very skeptikal about these creatures.

I made a copy of one of the pics(2nd one posted), and circles what looks like a line of some sort attached to the "creature" and goes to the beach. The arrow points to what looks like a small post to which the line is attached to. What do you all think?
BurnSide
Hrmm. I don't see any line. Could you maybe trace over the line? Highlight it just so i can see where you mean.
LisaMHD
Here ya go Burnside. I could be wrong of corse, but thats what it looks like to me.
BurnSide
I see what you mean. Good stuff, thank you.

However i'm not convinced. Mainly because i think the 'monster' is drawn onto the picture with a marker. laugh.gif
mr_halo

i think its a genuine photo of a lake monster, prove me wrong original.gif

That "line" could be from the waves.This pic is from a long time ago,this looks pretty real considering how old it is...
