GREEN LAKE, Wis. (WFRV) – Deputies and local authorities are continuing search efforts on Wisconsin’s Big Green Lake for a man who went missing after kayaking on August 11.
According to the Green Lake County Sheriff’s Office, a morning drone mission that focused on the west end of Big Green Lake was completed on Wednesday.
Since Wednesday’s drone search, another dive was completed by a volunteer diver in the area where a fishing rod was recovered. This was done in hopes that previous circumstances may have prevented the victim from being found during earlier searches.
