Man Missing After Boat Swerves To Avoid Fish

look out!
Two men were thrown from their boat on the Suwannee River on Monday evening and one of them is still missing.

The guy driving the boat, Brian Norris, 28, was able to make it to shore and was taken to Shands Medical Center in Gainesville.

Roderick Page, 22, remains missing.

The two men were traveling south near Fowlers Bluff in a 12-foot aluminum johnboat when a large fish jumped out of the water in front of the boat. Norris said he swerved, and both men were thrown into the water.

Wildlife officials have warned boaters about sturgeon jumping out of the water in parts of the Suwannee River. At least five people have been injured this year in encounters with the prehistoric-looking fish, which can grow up to 8-feet long and weigh up to 200 pounds.

    That;s why it’s good to carry a wooden bat on a boat.

    For robbers, thefts, Baseball, and procecting yourself. It works pretty well.
    But…. : you’re gonnna need a BIGGER BOAT.’
    and a BIGGER BAT.

    That’s obviously not what happened ;) . I mean the man is missing so we haven’t heard the story from his side. And Brian Norris………….UNRELIABLE! Him and the fish obviously made a deal :) ! :0! A DEAL I TELL YOU A DEAL! The deal was that if the fish takes Roderick off of Brain’s chest (literally) then he will grant the fish THREE WISHES! The fish wished for a…………….fur coat……….a flying car…………..AND A :) ;) PLANET FULL OF UNICORNS!!!! Good idea Brian……….AND FISH!
