Dang!

Looks like some prehistoric monster!

That thing is ugly. Would scare me good in the water with me but they only eat plankton and other small stuff. Resembles a shark in the body, but that face........gross.

How big do you think it was?

From the tail to the end of the snout I'd say atleast 5'. I'm 6'4" and it was close to as long as I am tall.

Very nice, but not what I was expecting. I thought you were talking about the bird; I didn't know about the fish. But like I said, nice video.

What lake was this in? I know there are some monsters in Table Rock and Lake of the Ozarks.
