    Praying that they made it to shore somehow. I wanna throw up reading that post. How does a boat that we'll equiped turn over? We're the waves that bad?

    Praying for them all!

    Prayers go out to family and friends, a reminder of the true power and danger of Erie that we all become complacent with. It was pretty rough yesterday afternoon. Be safe this season ladies and gents never hurts to ride out rough water at the islands.

    Default missing boaters

    My new pfd just arrived, the lightweight kind with cartridge... I'm going to start wearing it all the time, especially while fishing alone.

    Just got a phone call.....A second person has been found.

    The first was wearing a mustang suit...the second had a life jacket on too. They didn't find any life jackets in the boat, so they are assuming they all had life jackets on. The dive team has been called off.

    Now, we just need to hope they find the other two very soon.

    Oh my God that's horrible! You can't last long in low 40 degree water even with a life jacket.

    Praying for the families of the missing fisherman. This could be any one of us. Everybody be safe and god bless. Just curious capt. Juls. You said one had a mustsng suit on. I was under the assumtion a mustang suit could withstand cold water temps. Is there a limited length of time one can withstand the water with a suit on. Just curious
