In your opinion, does this lake have dead bodies inside (from murder or suicide)?

>>74125847
I think most lakes do

>>74125847
Most lakes do. When I got my diving certification, I trained in a lake in a rural area. We found a car with two dead people in it - they were from the 1970's, and they probably drove into the lake while drunk in the fall or spring, when the water was cold, but not quite frozen.

This was almost 25m deep, and at night, so it was very bizarre and kind of scary to find them.

It's not as open as the ocean which means the creatures in it will be near you wherever you are

The creatures in it also aren't fucking scary and awful like ocean ones are. At least fish in lakes won't take you god damned leg off.

But the possibility that the creature can hurt you in any way (for example jellyfish) is gone, and the water is extremely calm compared to the sea, so it's very soothing.

In oceans the creatures will be far away from the coast + here in Europe we have many folk myths about monsters in lakes which everyone knows isn't true but it could still provoke fear from childhood

Although all lakes in Denmark look like this and will be a crime scene at some point, so maybe that's why

The real answer is Ohrid lake

1. The oldest lake in all of Europe and one of the deeps
2. Slavic literacy invented in it (cyrillic) during 7th century the height of the first Bulgarian empire so it's filled with early medieval scripts, churches and forts that they used to fight the Byzantines

All the other lakes just have water

But perhaps TOO big. The Great Lakes are not very "cozy" in many areas; it's just a giant sheet of water stretching into the horizon.

Helvetinjärvi National Park has some calm areas. The lakes are surrounded by steep ridges and dense forestation, which are great when Autumn sets in.

>>74130261
Sadly, no.
Going fishing is kinda pain in the ass in many european countries. You need a licence, need to buy a day/month/year pass to fish on special lakes etc. etc.
