Very very true, I've seen those vids as well...while fishing from the shoreline once on Monksville; I saw something about 12-14" swimming on the surface 50' away, making passes, I assumed it was a muskrat or otter. I kept an eye on it and it came in close enough that I could see it was actually a musky about 4' long. The head was MASSIVE and that's what I saw breaking the surface, not an muskrat/otter. I was pretty shocked to say the least. I've never seen any fish scope shallows (3-10') with it's head breaking above the water line.
