RedactedNarrative: On August 30, 2020 at approximately 1750 hours, the VICTIM, his family and a friend were floating the North Fork of the Flathead River just above Fool Hen Rapid, approximately 4.6 miles upstream of the Glacier Rim River Access.  The group had two vessels tied to each other by a rope. The VICTIM was in his own inflatable pontoon fishing boat.  
  
  The rope between the two vessels snagged on a rock in the middle of the river that was just above the waters surface. The VICTIM reached over to unsnag the rope and his vessel flipped, ejecting the VICTIM into the river. 
  
  Witness1 said the VICTIM never resurfaced and was only submerged for approximately 15 seconds.  Witness1 pulled Victim 1 from the water and brought him a short distance downriver to the gravel bar.

Victim did not have a PFD on board the vessel.   No Toxicology test was conducted and no autopsy was done.
