  Officers arrived on scene and went to the incident location, which appeared to be a couple hundred yards to the west of the dock area.  They observed the old pilings ran from the north shore line out into the lake area.  There was a blue object, later identified as the float tube, near the pilings closer to shore.   
  
  The victim was found belted inside of his inverted water floatation device (inflatable designed for fishing).  The device was tied off, presumably by victim, to a tree that was protruding from the water about three feet.  He was wearing a fishing vest (not a PFD), which was unsnapped, a white T-Shirt, and chest waders with the shoulder straps tied around his waist/stomach.  There were no signs of trauma.  Diver's recovered Parker's fishing pole and other personal items from beneath the water.
