RedactedNarrative: Family members of the victim notified dispatch at 1845 concerned that the victim had not returned home from his fishing trip on Lake Conway. Victim's vehicle and trailer were located at the Pearce Creek boat ramp. Severe wind conditions (small craft advisory issued at the time - winds gusting at 40mph) hampered search efforts but officers were eventually able to locate V1 east of the boat ramp floating against two cypress trees with the bow pointed in a north westerly position. Inspection of V1 revealed one suspender type PFD (still in the package) in the boat and one throwable PFD.  The outboard motor was set in the neutral position with the throttle in the idle position.  The trolling motor on the bow was turned on and in the full power position. The handle of the trolling motor (which controls speed and direction) appeared to have been broken off and was lying on the bow of V1. 
  
  The victim was located early (07:32) the next morning approximately 1/2 mile northwest of the Pearce Creek ramp on the north bank. Victim was sent to the Crime Lab for autopsy and toxicology tests. *Results Pending.
