A Winchester Bay, Oregon resident describes a cryptid sea creature that he has seen on 3 occasions. Other witnesses have come forward as well.
I recently received the following interesting account:
"So, this happened about 10 years ago on the cold Oregon coast in a small coastal town called Winchester Bay. I was visiting a new friend who was on vacation there in town to visit her grandpa. I know, quite a mouthful but bare with me.
Anyway, at the time I was a clumsy kid; and normally I had her grandpa help me into their boat. It was sort of like a small house boat. But this time, however, he wasn't available to help me out. So, I had to get on by myself. But as I was placing my foot on the rim, something bumped the boat from below. SPLASH!! I was in the frigid waters of the harbor. That wasn't the scary part, the scary part was when I see this creature.
It was very long, maybe around 10 - 15 feet long. A skinny body, short stubby limbs, a stubby neck, muddy brown skin, a long thin paddle shaped tail, and an oval shaped head filled with interlocking teeth. This was the first time I saw what I'd later call, "The Seamander".
I had given it a name to help to tell these encounters. Now, I would have brushed this off as a kid's overactive imagination, if I hadn't encountered them 2 other times. Both times being from a distance at night, first time seeing its head go above the water. And the second time, hearing one of them swim around in the waterway under a bridge I was crossing followed by snarling.
I also would meet two others that would have encounters that fit the description of my previous encounters. One of them having 'hooked a big creature that began to roar'. And the other being stalked along the side of the river late at night. What are these things?
I don't know, but they are not a well-known cryptid so I thought I'd share.” TN
NOTE: the witness seems to very sincere about these sightings. Could it be a sturgeon or some other underwater species. Very interesting account. Any follow-up information is welcomed. Lon

Come with us as we explore the many stories, studies and topics through podcasts, interviews, books, blogs and news/magazine articles. Kyle Philson is a native Texan. Growing up in rural Texas in a small town outside of the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex, Kyle spent a lot of time in the woods hunting, fishing and camping. His early interest in the paranormal was first sparked by his father and uncles. Watching shows like Unsolved Mysteries and In Search Of along with reading numerous books by John Keel and Ivan T.

Keeping an open mind and exploring these topics, he strives to present theses stories and experiences shared by only a few in a fun and light hearted way. Kyle currently lives in Texas with his wife and three sons.

Growing up in a rural country town he spent the majority of his time outdoors.

Like most his fascination with the strange and unusual started young with shows like In Search Of and Unsolved Mysteries. Diving deeper into these subjects at his the local library, only fueled the flames that have led him to where he is today.
