WATCH: Monster croc stuns onlookers at Constant Creek

This Mother’s Day adventure did not disappoint.

A DAY spent croc-spotting paid off for Mackay mum Stacey Ackley.

Mrs Ackley captured this incredible video of a mammoth reptile sunning itself on the banks of Constant Creek, north of Mackay, on Sunday.

"We were there looking for crocs - that's what I wanted to do for Mother's Day," she said.

"We've seen crocs there pretty much every time we go to Constant Creek."

Mrs Ackley, who moved from Perth to Mackay a year ago, said she was initially nervous about moving to an area that was home to the apex predator.

But those nerves are now behind her.

"We were pretty excited (to see the crocodile)," she said.

"Every other time we've seen crocs, they go straight into the water when they see us.

"I think he would have been about four metres. He was about the same size as our boat."

Constant Creek has become a go-to location for croc-spotters and it is believed several large crocodiles call it their home.

Last month, North Mackay resident Sarah Raines was spooked when a four-metre croc "launched" itself into the creek while she was fishing with friends.
