yeah, i heard about that... sad. We went up after perch on 12/3. The lady at the bait shop at Sodus Point said they haven't found him and that the guy wasn't wearing a PFD. They're mandatory after Nov 1, but I wear them whenever i'm on the water after the temps start dropping. Sad.
Seems every year someone drowns in the bay - either from a boat or usually ice fishing.
Prayers to his family from me too.
