When I was 10, my family decided to visit our cousins in upstate New York, at their cabin on Keuka Lake, or also known as The Finger Lakes. This is because from above, the lakes resemble that of a hand with long fingers. From what I know, the lakes are very deep and very murky. Divers have tried to explore the it, but even with a light they can't see much down there. My family rented a pontoon once we got there and started boating around the lakes, stopping in different areas to sit and swim or hang out on the water. Eventually, we all got hungry and decided to boat over to a lakeside restaurant with a boat port for lunch. My parents docked the boat and we all began to climb out. I was the last to climb out of the boat and I did so without any help, as the rest of my family were quickly walking away from the boat and over to the entrance. As I was exiting the boat, I heard a large splash from beside me, AKA the edge of the dock. I look over and at first made out the appearance of a human back with arms. Then, as it retreated further under the water, I saw the tail. The tail and the rest of its body were the same color, probably a peachy-fleshy color or a light yellow, and the tail itself resembled that of a catfish. But this creature was BIG. Much bigger than little 10 year old me. The upper body of the creature was similar to that of my 25 year old cousin's body, so that's the age I would put it at. I couldn't tell if it was male or female, the water was too murky. After it completely disappeared, I ran to my family and told them what I saw and of course, they didn't believe me. But I know that I saw it, I KNOW that I wasn't imagining anything. I recently talked to some other people from Keuka Lakes and they too have said that there have been sightings of creatures similar to the one I saw in the lake. People can call me crazy all they want to, but I will take this to the grave with me. I saw a Mermaid. Not Ariel from the little mermaid or the ones from H20, but a raw evolution type of mermaid. If you live near Keuka Lakes, have you seen one too? Or has anyone else seen one and KNOW that it was a real one? Please tell me about it.
