Mermaid. Russia

In the summer of 2016 my buddy, Nicholas went here for the fishing. Here is his story.

- I arrived at the lake somewhere in the fifth hour of the day. Sitting on the Bank with a fishing rod, pull perch and roach. Evening. Make another cast and the hook became entangled in the mud near the shore. Reached to unhook, and the bait laid next to the water. Here in the water something flashed.

Turn your head at me from under the water with a small depth, look two eyes. Round and large - about the size if your thumb and index fingers to the ring to join.

Pupils are seen - eyes, white spots, look at me and not blink. And the upper part of the head grey, with a semicircular, smooth. As the Dolphin. Only where the lakes come from?!

I grabbed the rod, slammed it on the water next to the eyes. "Shoo!" say. Head plunged into the depths and disappeared. I jumped on shore, gathered her things, jumped on the motorcycle and rode home. Still no idea what it was. Never anything like this on this lake no longer met.

Another case happened to my other friends. He claimed that it is true. Gave him the word.

- It was summer, July. I stayed on the fishing, it was getting dark. Caught at the far end of the lake, other fishermen for all time is not noticed. Quietly, calmly. And on a lake near me there is a small Creek, overgrown with reeds. On the banks of the Creek growing tree is the willow.

And suddenly I hear: there, where the tree - the source of the laughter. Like a baby laughing or a young girl. Where there people come from? Gardeners, whether that rest? Closer to the Bayou, pushing the reeds and right at my feet out of the water emerges two hands and grab my boots.

Hands like humans, only grey, shiny and webbed between the toes. I yelled with fright and jumped ashore. Ran a little, I look candle lantern. See: in the place where I was standing, got out of the water large tail fin splashed and went under water. Don't know what I saw there, maybe a mermaid? But the more I on this lake - or foot.
