RedactedNarrative: ON OCTOBER 17,2009 AT APPROXIMATELY 4:17 P.M. I WAS NOTIFIED BY LDWF COMMUNICATIONS OF A SMALL VESSEL THAT HAD SUNK IN LAKE CATAOUATCHE WITH THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VESSEL SITTING ON THE BOW OF THE SUNKEN BOAT.  I CONTACTED ST CHARLES PARISH SHERIFFS OFFICER 1 AND HE INFORMED ME THAT HE WAS ALREALY RESPONDING TO THE CALL AND THAT ONE OF THE PASSENGERS FATHER HAD ALREADY PICKED THE TWO STRANDED BOATERS  UP OUT OF THE WATER AND THAT HE HAD BROUGHT THEM TO THE PIER 90 BOAT LAUNCH.  I ARIVED AT THE PIER 90 BOAT LAUNCH AND QUESTIONED THE TWO OCCUPANTS ABOUT THE EVENT.  THE OPERATOR STATED THAT THEY WERE GOING FISHING IN LAKE SALVADOR WHEN THEY REALIZED THE WATER WAS TOO ROUGH TO GO FISHING THEY TURNED AROUND AND HEADED BACK INTO LAKE CATAOUATCHE.  APPROXIMATELY HALFWAY BACK ACROSS THE BOAT TOOK SEVERAL LARGE WAVES OVER THE BOW AND STERN CAUSING THE VESSEL TO SINK. THE TWO OCCUPANTS PUT ON THEIR PFD'S AND WAITED ON THE VESSELS BOW UNTIL THEY WERE RESCUED.  THE INCIDENT IS STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION AT THIS TIME.
