The body of a missing fisherman was discovered in a Putnam County lake on Wednesday, the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency reported Thursday.
Barry Cross, TWRA spokesman, said authorities found Quinn Hogan, a 36-year-old Putnam County resident, dead in Center Hill Lake.
According to Cross, TWRA officers responded to a call of a missing angler on Wednesday, who had been reported missing by a friend.
Hogan was reported as fishing on the lake the previous afternoon and friends looking for Hogan, found his truck at the Cookeville boat dock on Wednesday, Cross said.
Three TWRA boats and two Dekalb County rescue boats searched and found the bass fishing boat of the missing angler around 12:30 p.m.
The boat was adrift in a cove near to the Cookeville Boat Dock, Cross said.
Officers used GPS forensic tracking to determine the area the boat went adrift. Crews located Hogan’s body at 4:30 p.m. in eight feet of water, despite heavy rains in the area.
His body was discovered near where the boat was found.
Hogan was wearing a self-inflating personal floatation device, Cross said. The device was not inflated.
His death remained under investigation on Thursday, Cross said.
