Class B First-hand BFRO #25869

Fisherman hears strange grunts and moans near Glenn Flint Lake

August 2006 around 1 am Greencastle, Putnam County, Indiana 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a companion were fishing on a lake around 1 a.m. when they heard coyotes yipping and barking, then loud grunt and moan-like sounds, followed by a scream-like cry and silence. Frightened by the loudness, the witness pulled the anchors and left. The witness later attributed the deep sounds to a Bigfoot.
