Two people were out fishing in the area of Lake Okeechobee between Sandcut and Canal Point. When the weather turned bad across the lake they decided to come in. While coming along the east side of the lake the conditions grow bad and they panicked. In their panicked stage they shut the boat off, then  the winds blew them into the rocks and beat the boat and swamped and sunk the boat they were in. Myself and officer were dispatched to the aid of these people, once we got to the area, we were able to assist in safely getting the individuals to a safe area.
