RedactedNarrative: Operator advised they were fishing along the bank and he was running the trolling motor.  The victim got his hook hung under water and after fighting with it, he took his life jacket off and they began to fish again. 
  
  They came to a low hanging limb and began passing under it.  The operator told his passengers to watch out for the limb but the victim was standing on the back of V1 with his back turned and when he turned around the limb hit him in the chest causing him to lose his balance and fall out of V1 and go underwater. 
  
  The operator turned V1 around with the trolling motor to try and locate the victim. After a couple minutes the operator knew something was wrong and called 911.  The victim's fishing pole resurfaced and passenger 2 grabbed it and began reeling it in.  The passenger then stated he pulled hard on the line and when he did the victim's body surfaced. 
  
  The line from the pole was wrapped around his arm and leg and the hook was caught in his shirt. The victim was not breathing and they began yelling for help. A fellow fisherman heard them and helped them get the victim's body out of the water and back to the nearest boat ramp where the coroner pronounced the victim's death
