Bag o ' Fish inventor dies Loch Lomond in gigantic fish threat Never mind Nessie, say boffins at Loch Lomond Oceanic Center.
Cryptids are legendary creatures that may or may not exist, such as Bigfoot, Nessie, and the chupacabra.
While stories of the Loch Ness Monster seem to ebb and flow within the media, a new sighting or image of Nessie, as the creature is known, is usually all that it takes to prompt a new interest in this old legend.
This body of water has some very deep portions that would be perfect for Nessie to retreat to, making it nearly impossible for scientists to get a glimpse of the creature.
Nessie, as the creature is affectionately known, appeared in stories from Scotland as early as the 6th century.
