RedactedNarrative: On 7/15/09 P1 and two companions were fishing from a small flat bottom boat in Sam Rayburn Lake when another boat passed near and caused a large wake that came over the stern of their boat.  Water started filling up the boat and the 3 men went to the front of the boat to try and  avoid sinking.  The boat eventually sank and the 3 men, without any PFDs, held on to the side of the boat.  P1 could not hold on any longer and eventually drowned.
  A passing boater picked up P1 and his two companions and brought them all to shore.  P1 was pronounced dead at the scene by an official of Angelina county.
  Report filed by TPWD Officer 1.
