Montauk Monster Found On Beach - IFishCT.com - 08-02-2008

I didn't see anything about this on the forums yet so I figured I would post it... This really isn't about a fish, but more about what you might run into if you are surfcasting the Montauk beaches this summer...

Fox news recently reported on an unidentified creature washing up on the beach in Long Island, and they have a picture of it.

Check out an [url "http://ifishct.com/blog/2008/08/02/montauk-monster-like-creature-washes-up-on-beach-hoax-or-reality-you-decide/"]abridged version of the montauk monster story here[/url]

Try not to step on one when you are out there this summer!

That is an interesting looking creature. I'm glad they don't have them on the West Coast.

I have also put up a follow up story showing some graphical evidence that this may be nothing more than a decomposing raccoon, however I still feel like it is a hoax for publicity... Check out the follow up story here:

It does look pretty close to the raccoon theory. I have never seen a turtle with chompers.[shocked]
