this was posted by my friend on a waterfowl site..we both duck hunt. but this is NOT a joke as i seen the guys out fishing earlier that day..

guys just a heads up of what I went through yesterday....

woke up @ 3am went hunting with a success(2 guns 7 birds) went back that evening, came home and went to cookout with friends. got home around 10:30 pm and was exhausted. the fire pager went off @ 01:46hrs for a boat wreck involving 2 boats. after I arrived on scene it was only 1 boat and NOT a wreck. from 3 witness' 2 people were in the boat fishing under the bridge in a 16' Glastron bass boat. started taking on water fast couldn't get the big motor started so they used trolling motor to try to make it back to the ramp ( about 100 yds away) they were yelling for help so the witness' were @ Tamarac ran around to the wildlife ramp to find the boat sunk and no people. after retrieving the boat which was 35 yds from the edge of the dock and after the recovery process 2 lives were lost. so the reason I'm telling ya'll the story is the guys had on heavy clothes (weight) and no PFD's plus 44degree water temp. it dont take long for shock and hyperthemia to set in. so guys remember to use your lifejackets. also unknown if victims could swim. man, only 35yds from safety. so a good day ended sadly.
