Star Trek Aliens
These gelatinous things are called Bryozoa or Bryozoids.
They are about the strangest life form you will encounter in the lake. They are actually a colony of microscopic Zooids (animal, not plant) that filter the water to extract their lunch. Finding these in the lake usually means that the water quality is quite good.
I remember finding them in the weirdest places as child; like inside an old leather shoe trapped in the silt of the lake bottom. We had no idea back then (B.G. : Before Google) what these things were. They reminded me of some alien life form from an episode of Star Trek. All we really knew was that they were great fun for creeping-out your friends and of course, for chucking at each other.
