Relatively small.. Cut and paste the name to google earth and add canada and it'll take you to it... Though totally consistent with the conditions in a lot of other post glacial lakes of the world...Loch Ness, Champlain, Okonagen, there are others, both biologically, hydro-atmospherically similar and don't forget...the requisite human interpretation.

Just a thought! I think the description got confused in translation from French to English!! i.e., nice meaning amazing. Just a thought!

So we have a "big fish", (which could be interpreted as a wide range of sizes), "swimming", (as opposed to that other fish activity "water skiing", I suppose), and it was very "nice". If it was not for the mention of a wave (but again, this could be anything, there is no mention of it's size or even why he thought a wave would be odd on a lake), this could have been a largemouth bass sighting. The report needs a good deal more detail in order to be of any real use in determining what the thing could be, in my opinion. This is one lake creature I had never heard of, so I am interested to know what type of lake this is, if it is natural or artificial, whether it has a good connection with the sea, what kind of native aquatic life is prevalent there, etc. These kinds of details give a lot of much needed information when trying to determine what any given lake monster could feasibly be (unknown animal or otherwise).
