[QUOTE="Fox Island Outfitter, post: 126883, member: 1190"] The gentleman is my wife's uncle. Experienced fisherman but I'm still unclear how he was taking on water. Friday afternoon a wave rolled him while he was trying to bail some out and he ended in the water. He was wearing his life jacket and was able to grab a gas can to help him float. He spent over 12 hours in the water before he floated up to the highway and was barely able to climb up on the rocks. A passerby found him and called for help. We received the phone call early Saturday morning that he didn't return from fishing. When they found his truck and trailer at the ramp, real panic started setting in. We are very thankful the Lord was on his side. I'm not too familiar with Devils Lake but he was around Minnewaukin. He is doing just fine now, but it was a long night in the water for him. Good reminder bad things can happen and to always expect the unexpected and be prepared. Be safe out there.
