I read earlier, that a fisherman found one of the bodies, I didn't know which one. So many things can go wrong night fishing, it compounds problems when the water is cold, like it is now.


When the water is low and cold ... we've lost many a boater out here on Lake Murray to running under docks at night. It's never pretty either.

Are there a lot of stumps in that lake where they were lost? Stumps can get you too, in low water.

But it's probably going to be running into a dock.

Was it cold there on March 2nd? It wasn't here.

Water levels are usually lower in the winter, but not sure how much they were the day of the incident. I haven't fished that lake but once before and not that familiar with it.

It was not cold that day. They went missing between Oneal bridge and Wilson Dam. There is not a single dock in that area and no stumps either, but there are many submerged boulders that were unearthed during the construction of the dam in the 20s/30s.
