I saw a fish off a pier in Boone Lake in TN not far from the dam one well lit full moon night as we were fishing with the luminescent glow lights. It was the size of Cadillac, one of the old Cadillacs.
Years earlier some Navy Divers inspecting the dam "felt" something watching them work at the base of the dam. They said they turned their flashlights and saw an eye the size of a dinner plate watching them just feet away. One diver almost panicked at the sight of this giant fish he said could gulp you down whole. Both NAVY divers swore they'd never inspect that dam again. they both claimed it was the biggest fresh water fish they'd ever seen or imagined could exist.
One of my older friends is a Navy diver, those guys are hardcore.
I'm wondering if the fish I saw that night was the same one and if anyone has ever heard of such a thing ?
The story with the NAVY divers is documented, it's factual.
