I heard about them in this book called the Unexplained. They're basically these whale-sized fish in a remote Chinese lake!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739684561063978507.post-43772844964101491672010-12-14T10:08:04.475+00:002010-12-14T10:08:04.475+00:00Nice story about The Monsters of Lakes Iliamna and...Nice story about The Monsters of Lakes Iliamna and Clark. Catching this kind of creature will definitely be an exciting experience. It is a scary fishing adventure. But for families who love to do fishing activity during vacation, it is recommended to look for a Fishing charter to have a wonderful and memorable trip.Fishing Charterhttp://www.findacharter.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3739684561063978507.post-12551239817566547772010-12-01T21:02:13.018+00:002010-12-01T21:02:13.018+00:00Wow, I knew Lake Iliamna was big - but it's ki...Wow, I knew Lake Iliamna was big - but it's kinda hard to get a sense of scale since Alaska's so far removed from the rest of the US - I didn't realize it was as big as Connecticut. These monsters really shouldn't be even doubted, since 10m, big though it is, really isn't even all that far removed from how big we know these sturgeon get.<br /><br />And I might be tooting my own horn a bit here, but I'd like to think it's because of me that show was on - there was something posted on the Facebook page for the show about places in the States they could go, and I said Lake Iliamna as one of my picks - obviously I don't know if it is, but I'd like to think this episode was because of me.

They are almost ceratainly very large White sturgeons and very simlar to other monsters reported in far NE Siberia and then again further inland into Canada. Matt Writer and I have a longgoing dialogue about this. There are also freshwater seals in the same lakes.<br /><br />Incidentally a Russian friend of mine says that the names beluga (the white whale) and beluga (the great white sturgeon) may look the same but they are actually pronounced differently in the Russian language. In the one case the g is pronounced as g but in the other it is more like an h.<br /><br />Best Wishes, Dale D.Dale A.
