A very tall figure in Carroll County, Arkansas

I have no doubt about what we saw. It was springtime in 1997. Me, my dad and brother in law was fishing in a boat by Holiday Island, AR in a cove called the Leatherwood Creek. We were trolling along the bank and at about 9 am along an area that opened up from the trees to a rocky area that was a power line clearing when we seen a Bigfoot like creature walking upright over fairly big rocks towards the power line. He was hairy, walked kind of slumped, arms seemed to be long, everything you would think about Bigfoot. The only thing is didn’t seem to me to be like 6-7 ft tall, more like 5 ft but could of been the angle and distance, guessing 50 yds. Don’t remember face in a descriptive way other than struck me as a kind of demonic look. We floated by fairly quickly but had time to witness this. When we cleared view of it I asked my dad and brother in law if they seen what I did and they said yes. We were in shock and dumb founded. My dad died in 2005 and me and my brother in law has brought it up a couple times since then.
