A chilling tale of a fisherman's encounter with something mysterious in the waters of the Kalama River in Washington has been making the rounds on YouTube. The video, posted by Remote Cabin Radio, tells the story of a local bait and tackle shop owner and the strange events that unfolded near a popular fishing spot known as Beginner's Hole. According to the video, the strange occurrences began in the summer of 2001 when a regular customer named Steve and his girlfriend Tasha were startled by a loud impact on their car window while night fishing. They assumed it was a rock, but the force of the impact made them feel uneasy. A week later, a fisherman claimed to have seen a large, hairy creature standing on the riverbank. The sighting was enough to make the shop owner question if something supernatural was at play. The real shock came when the shop owner and his beer distributor, Travis, had a close encounter with something enormous in the water. They described it as an ape-like figure that rose up and submerged before resurfacing again. The sound of its movements soaked Travis, confirming its presence. The owner returned to Beginner's Hole with two customers for a guided driftboat trip. As they drifted downstream, the owner recounted the strange events that had unfolded there. Suddenly, a massive figure stood up in the middle of the river, hooked in the shoulder. The customers initially thought it was a dead body, but as the moonlight revealed its form, it became clear this was no corpse. The creature swung its arms before diving beneath the water and disappearing. The owner never returned to Beginner's Hole after that. He retired from guiding, and the events of that summer still haunt him. He insists that anyone brave enough to visit Beginner's Hole between 10 pm and 4 am might encounter something that will change their lives forever. I find this video fascinating. The eyewitness accounts and the owner's reluctance to return to the river after the encounters add to the intrigue. While the video doesn't provide any concrete evidence of a Bigfoot sighting, it does offer a compelling story that will leave you questioning what's really out there in the wilderness.
