RedactedNarrative: On March 21, 2020 LDWF Agents were notified of a vessel that sunk with nine subjects onboard.  TPSO arrived on scene and rescued seven of the subjects from a nearby bank.  Two other subjects were able to walk back to the camp they launched from. Agents learned the subjects left out to go bow fishing and before they began the vessel took a wave over the bow and filled with water causing it to sink. Two of the subjects left the sunk vessel and the other seven stayed together and walked to a nearby bank where they were rescued by TPSO.  Agents learned the vessel was 16' in length and was overloaded due to amount of people and gear.  PFD's were not worn and it is unknown if they had the proper number of PFD's. The vessel was found to be a tiller steer surface drive. Alcohol was not suspected as a factor to the incident. Agents found the accident occurred due to the overloading due to size of the vessel.
