Loch Ness Monster hunter hooked on catfish theory, ‘Expert’

The Loch Ness monster is most likely a large catfish, according to an expert who has spent 24 years searching for Nessie.

Steve Feltham, 52, gave up his home and job in England in 1991 to move to the shores of Scotland’s second largest loch and search for the elusive water monster. Speaking to Sky News on Thursday, Feltham admitted he was unable to solve the mystery.

“Looking at all the evidence, speaking to eyewitnesses, the most likely solution is a Wels catfish,” Feltham said. The breed of catfish is native to Europe and can grow up to four metres in length.

Feltham told Sky News he had no regrets about spending nearly 25 years hunting for the Loch Ness Monster, saying “I’m in my utopia living here on the shores of the loch.”

There have been countless Loch Ness Monster “sightings” over the years. The most famous is the so-called black-and-white surgeon’s photo captured in 1934. The photo was later revealed to be a hoax.

The BBC reports about 1 million people visit Loch Ness each year.
