There was one report that said it had been seen crawling back into the water across the road on the east-side of the Loch.
Fish, yes. Something that wasn’t a fish and was larger than a fish…no.
The canal would be difficult to transverse without being seen due to the seven locks between the loch and the sea, and the creature would need to be very patient and determined, knowing what it needed to do and when to makes its move.
The river would also be difficult; it is shallow along most of its length, knee deep in the low season at its deepest, and there are also two weirs to navigate. Salmon can get through since the fish channels were designed for their transit, but a larger ‘monster’ whose head might be the size of a salmon (I mean, who knows?) would have great difficulty.
But its dead – there hasn’t been a reported sighting of Nessie for 18 months… http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-highlands-islands-26081992
But little fish have of habit growing in to very large fish, beluga sturgeon at 15ft long would get your attention don’t you think.
