Thread: Missing fisherman at Smithville

Any news? Praying for a good outcome.

After 2 days of searching, they have stopped looking for the night and will resume searching Sunday morning. The man is 72 yrs old.

We were pretty darn close to them today fishing. Several times they were within 30-50 yards of us. We talked about it on the way in tonight and had VERY mixed feelings about about how we'd have felt had we happened to find the poor fellow. On the one hand, it would be some closure for the family, on the other, not exactly one of those things you'd like to remember for a lifetime.

Let's hope they miraculously find him having the special at Lowman's in the morning. But it sure doesn't seem likely.

Good times gone bad. Tough times on local lakes lately. Prayers sent out for the families.

They were still looking again this morning while the family waited on the shore . I felt the same way you did while fishing . I wouldn't like to find the body , but it would be closure for the family .

They found Gordon Carrs body with sonar at 1:30 p.m today.

It will be closure for the family , but I hate to hear the bad news . At least he died while doing something we all love , fishing in his favorite fishing hole .
