Muckie of Lough Muckross. - BIAD - 05-13-2023
Not many folk know that the deepest body of water -or Lough, in Ireland resides down in the western county of Kerry and
is titled Lough Muckross. Depths of 246 feet have been reported in this goal of many tourists who wish to visit the ancient
woodland and spectacular waterfalls.
To be specific, Lough Muckross -sometimes called 'Middle Lake' is in the Killarney National Park and close to a larger lake
called Lough Leane. The Atlantic Ocean borders the west, the grand river Shannon to the north and the beautiful province
also owns the award for having Ireland's tallest mountain, Carrauntoohil.
But Lough Muckross holds a strange story hiding in the dark depths of its quiet waters and the locals call it 'Muckie'. Down
there with the Brown Trout, Salmon and the rare blunt-snouted Irish char, something once swam without the concerns that
its cousins like Nessie and Champ have to deal with daily. And it was these fish that caused a group of scientists to discover
Muckie's furtive lifestyle.
In 2003, The Irish Charr Conservation Group -founded by Dr. Fran Igoe, Myles Kelly, Steven Neylon and Paul Mitchell, sent
their group to Kerry in order to determine the fish population in Muckross. Known as the Earc Uisce project, Eileen Sheehan,
John Sexton, Margaret O’Shea and Lynda Horgan spent the year plumbing the depths of Logh Muckross with sonar and as
they finished up the echo-sound readings in early 2004, they discovered something highly unorthodox on their recordings.
Something the size of a 'two-storey house' was moving across their sonar beam and as Andrew Long, a specialist fisheries
consultant later said: “We have been unable to identify exactly what the image is, but we know it was not a computer or
logging error, as the gear was functioning normally.”
Legends had been abound of a massive serpent living in the Killarney and MacGillicuddy Reeks area. Some researchers
found a myth surrounding MacGillicuddy Reeks mountains known locally known as Cnoc na Peiste or for those who aren't
fluent in the Gaelic language, 'Peak of the Serpent'. In 1981 a photograph was allegedly taken of a flipper-like appendage
in Lough Muckross, however no image has surfaced to reappear here.
Oddly enough, on Google Maps... there's something in the water.

Just in case there's a doubt of the tale of Lough Muckross, here's a video someone took of the
beautiful place and some odd things happening there.
