What Happened to the Pewaukee Lake Monster?

 

Pewaukee Lake Monster

Pewaukee Lake is in Waukesha County. It has a maximum depth of 45 feet and  has lots of Fish including  Musky, Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike and Walleye.

In the 1890s, people reported seeing a huge green thing travelling through the lake at speed It spouted water from its head. A reward was offered for its capture.One witness claimed to have thrown a spear at the creature, but the weapon rebounded as if it had hit  rock or iron. People became too afraid to try and catch it.

The fact it spouted water made me think it was some kind of whale.Nothing has been heard of it since .What happened to it?

I have lived in Pewaukee for 35 years, and I have never heard of this until 2022 so I am going to assume it’s no longer seen lol
