OPP say the body of a man who went overboard in a South Frontenac lake was recovered Sunday evening.
OPP say 61-year-old Clarence Hale was fishing with his wife Saturday evening on Little Lost Lake, near Bob’s Lake, in South Frontenac when their canoe capsized.
Only Hale’s wife was able to make it back safely by swimming to shore.
Police say Hale was not wearing a life-jacket while out on the canoe. However, Hale’s family members told Global News that he is known to be an avid swimmer.
