No, Loch Ness monster is a confirmed hoax. Thank you for asking.
"The original photo was confirmed as a hoax in the deathbed confession of Chris Spurling, son-in-law of Marmaduke Wetherell. Spurling claimed the photo was of a clay model attached to a toy submarine. Wetherell, a big game hunter, had been tricked into searching for an imaginary monster around the loch based on evidence which turned out to be the result of a children's prank. He was publicly ridiculed in the Daily Mail, the journal which employed him. To get revenge, Marmaduke Wetherell set this hoax up, with the help of Chris Spurling, a specialist in sculpture, Ian Marmaduke (his son), who bought the material for the fake Nessie, and Maurice Chambers (an insurance agent), who was to call and ask Robert Kenneth Wilson (a surgeon) to show the pictures."
I hope it helps to solve the mystery.

It's possible. Like many people, I've seen the photograph that made Nessie famous. However, that could have been a bit of debris or a trick of the light.
If Nessie is real, then she has managed to outfox a lot of technology that has been used to attempt to prove her existence. I'd like it if Nessie were real. But do I think she is? Logic and practicality tell me, "probably not."

Something that big. How could it hide in that little lake? If it's living, that means it reproduces as well. Otherwise, obviously, it will die and be exticnt.
Aliens are one thing. Bigfoot - weeeeel? Mabe. But something that big - hiding without a trace? No way.

Maybe, its not exactly impossible seeing as how there is no way to explore the entire depths of oceans and such. It could just really know how to keep to its self.
