Saw a pair of loons close to my shore and one seemed to be struggling with something. It's head was under water and seemed to be in distress. I assumed the worse ...caught in fishing line or some kind of trap but suddenly it raised it's head and it was trying to swallow a large fish. The fish looked to be 10' to 12' long and girth seemed to be bigger than the loons head but somehow it got it down.
I always thought they only caught smelt and other small bait fish. |

At ten to twelve feet long, it was possibly the Winnipesaukee Monster.
