Author Topic: Weird creature at Browning lake.

I was fishing at browning lake today and I found this creature floating/swimming/dying in the water. It looks really weird and looks to be amphibious as it looked like it had gills. It swims like a snake and has 4 legs and a tail and a rather large head. It looks like a lizard ? But I don't know what it is. Does anyone recognize this?
Thanks

You didn't say what size or colour , but I'll guess salamander.If it's under 2", I'd say damselfly

Sounds like a tadpole transforming into a frog, it would eventualy lose the tail and fill in the body.

My guess is a salamander. Some salamanders remain aquatic and keep their gills. Some get to a good size.
