SIGHTING: Crown Harbor Marina – 2012-01-08
Me and my dad and a friend were fishing off one of the coves down the hill from campsite twelve at LKN state park. It was probably about 7:00 in the morning. I heard a splash and just as i turned to see what it was, i saw a sturgeon-looking thing going back into the water.

SIGHTING: Near the Sandbar – 2016-06-04
We was about to go dipping in the water. So when I jumped in and got wet, I felt like a big fin and it hurt. My foot did not get hurt or anything. I went under because my eyes were still above water and I wanted to look in. When I did I saw something that I ain’t never seen. I guess it could be Normie.
SIGHTING: Largo Place Cornelius – 2016-02-25
I grew up off of Largo Place in Cornelius. I would swim in the lake all the time. You could see the dam from our house. We would swim at night a lot. One night, me and my next door neighbor’s granddaughter were swimming. There were no boats out and something jumped and made the biggest waves I have ever seen in the lake. I never went back in after that.
SIGHTING: Huntersville – 2016-02-05
I was on a boat wen a huge force from below knocked me over board. the water so colder then anything in my life. I got back on to my boat wen i saw a Nessie like sea monster swimming away from me. it looked about 15 feet long.
SIGHTING: Westport – 2015-02-12
I was reeling in a bass and I went to pull it on to the boat and a thing, monster (Normie) ate my fish. I waited around to see it again but it never resurfaced.
SIGHTING: Davidson Creek – 2015-01-26
I was on my paddle board when the water made a ripple. It was winter so no one was out on the lake but me. I looked closer into the murky water and saw a faint image of a big unusual fish.

I was on a jetski a few weeks back when i first moved down here with my girlfriend and while we were out on the lake, we both saw a large body come to the surface.
