The only thing I know of that lives in fresh water and grows that big is a sturgeon, but A) I seriously doubt there are any sturgeon in Herrington Lake, and B) I've never heard of them swimming on the surface like that.

I am a firm believer that ANYTHING is possible. I'm not saying that there is or isn't a Herrington Monster, but I believe it's possible.
I guess I should clarify. If he says he saw it, I believe him. And when I said I'd never heard of sturgeon surfacing... well, a Google search tells me I was wrong, they do, just not very often. Herrington was impounded almost 80 years ago, wasn't it? Time enough for a sturgeon to grow pretty **** big. What do you think, Cumberlandguy, is that a possibility?
That was our first thought as well, but it was just too big. We were in a 17 ft boat and the part that we could see was longer than the boat. I have never seen anything like it.
"black" submarine? hehe
There's always been a rumor that divers went down to examine Dix Dam and reported giant catfish big enough to swallow a VW Bug could this big your monster?
I believe it is a cousin to the Bluelick monster near Junction City. LoL How bout it wormin. Did you ever run across it on herrington?
I've seem some pretty big alligator gar in that lake... Dan
yeah we've seen some big gar as well. I would lean toward the sturgeon side except the **** thing swam funny. I realized that when I started this thread that I would get some ridicule, but we definitely saw something that day that just doesn't belong there and thanks to the guys who have admitted seeing something weird there as well.
All in fun, alot of strange things are seen all over, and alot of strange things happen all over that can't really be explained
