Lancashire’s mysterious lake monster

Strange video footage sparks questions

By Pat Regan

 

First Nessie; but what is this moving along in a deep, cold Lancashire Lake?

You have all heard of the Loch Ness Monster, consequently is this footage of Lancashire's very own answer to 'Nessie.' 

I am not going to say whereabouts I took this clip but it was in Lancashire, UK, at a private location south of Preston, and I was fishing all alone at the time.  

The lake is mainly freshwater, yet if does has an overflow that links it to a local estuary leading to the Irish Sea. This ensures that sea water can enter the lake at times.

I have caught sea fish (flounders and eels) in this watercourse although it is mainly known for trout and coarse species, such as roach, perch, pike and tench etc.

I am extremely familiar with the lake after angling there for decades. I am just not 100% certain what this ‘creature’ was.

Checkout this video clip that I uploaded! Click on the photo below:

The water was almost freezing when the footage was taken and at this icy temperature most self-respecting fish are happily hugging the warmer bottom layers of lakes for sheer survival. Indeed trout fishing methods frequently involve pulling a sunk lure very slowly along the bottom to entice the lethargic fish to feed.

The old jetty behind the unidentified object is about 10 - 12 feet in length so that may present us with some comparative scale.

Strange things are to be discovered in the sky (UFOs) and also it seems in the waters about our frequently mysterious planet. And no – before you ask we do ‘not’ have crocodiles/alligators in this part of the world, thank goodness!

Make of it what you will – but please don’t shoot the messenger for simply bringing this one to your attention.

What others say... 

“This book is no dry analysis of a quaint mystery. It's a muscular thesis that isn't afraid to take on the difficult issues and ask the questions that more traditional UFO researchers have avoided. Buckle up, readers, and get ready for one hell of a ride.” 

 (World renowned Ufologist, Nick Pope)

So - what do others say about UFO: The Search for Truth?

“This book is no dry analysis of a quaint mystery. It's a muscular thesis that isn't afraid to take on the difficult issues and ask the questions that more traditional UFO researchers have avoided. Buckle up, readers, and get ready for one hell of a ride.” (World renowned UFOlogist, Nick Pope)

“Pat Regan's own first-hand experience and his research into the MoD UFO files make his book a very authoritative read.” (Bill Birnes, UFO Hunters, UFO Magazine)

"Pat's authoritative research into the darkest corners of the UFO phenomena cuts right to the heart of the matter and is a long overdue assessment of this complex phenomena"(Andy Russell, Top UFO Researcher)

"The field of Ufology can't have enough books that tackle these vexing issues head-on. Pat Regan's new book, UFO: The Search for Truth can now certainly be added to the list of those that provide new and valuable insights to those looking for the truth."(Lloyd Pye, Starchild Project)

As host of a talk show that deals with the paranormal (and other things strange and unexplained), I get e-mail from listeners with all kinds of comments and questions. One question I’ve been asked a number of times is, “Have you ever had a paranormal experience?” Continues here!
