Freshwater Jellyfish???

Was out on the lake last night jigging for Walleyes and noticed soemthing weird in the water. Looking close there were hundreds of quarter-size "Jellyfish". I have never seen them in fresh water before & didn't even know they existed. Did anyone else know they existed?
Here's a link to more info on them:

Hey, this is lots of excitement for me out in the sticks!!!

Lambeau,
Shhhh....Keep a lid on it! You are the first to discover a new jelly fish not previously known to man. The media will get wind of it and be camped out all over your sacred wilderness in order to scoop the story. Life as you know it will be over!

There's a real freshwater jellyfish that lives in the islands of Palau that has no sting.

some guys up north on the sea ray board talked about this about a month ago, which was the first i'd ever heard of freshwater jellies.

I thought all the jellies lived in the jellyfish fields near Bikini Bottom.
