The cold, rainy weather Thursday couldn’t dampen the resolve of friends, family and concerned citizens who continued to search for a missing duck hunter whose boat capsized in Trinity Bay early this week.
They searched throughout the day and into the night, some on private boats in the bay, others slogging through the marshy land nearby. But no one has seen Matthew Hoover, 24.
“We just need more people out there, as many as possible,� Davis said. “Time is of the essence right now. If you can come with a boat or just on foot, we need you.�
Tuesday afternoon, searchers located Hoover’s green boat, floating upside down with a few decoy ducks attached. On Wednesday, they found two life jackets and more decoy ducks on the shore.
