maker a laker Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Recent Update to this situation: Body of a male missing and presumed drowned has been recovered form the scene in the past 1-2 hours. Female still missing. Only her shoe recovered. Sad situation. Co-worker had beer s with the victims on Saturday afternoon. Sunday they are drowned. Always respect the danger of cold water, even though it looks almost the same a warm water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokercrafty Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Although I always wear my lifejacket when in the boat, I ended up buying an auto inflatable last night. Why not make the time spent on the water even more enjoyable. Looking forward to picking it up tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porkpie Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 My fishing buddy and I wear inflatables on every trip now. I don't think that would've helped here though. Just a moments misjudgement or perhaps lack of knowledge. A shame all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Cliff Posted April 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Another incident yesterday on buckhorn lake 2 men capsized a little tinner while towing a dock !!!! what the hell .... Full on rescue again ..... At least they had pfd"s on but still ..... Rescue or recovery? A few years back while putting my dock in I slipped and fell, I was only in about 3' of water but I still had a hard time getting back on my feet and getting out. The shock of that cold water knocks the breath right out of you. Again another sad tradgity to start the season while trying to do something so simple.

FishFinder17 Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 saw my barber yesterday. He brought up this story because he also cuts the guys hair who was dating one of the girls who passed away in this tragic accident. Said they had been together for 10 years and recently had an argument. They both agreed to patch it up when she got home from the cottage... So so tragic I cant even put it into words. My thoughts are with all those affected by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
