HIDDEN VALLEY LAKE, Calif. – The search for a local man who disappeared while fishing in Hidden Valley Lake on Tuesday is set to resume on Thursday morning.
Authorities have so far not released the name of the 42-year-old Hidden Valley Lake man, who went missing at about 8 a.m. Tuesday.
His overturned kayak was found anchored to the bottom of the reservoir, according to sheriff's Sgt. Don McPherson.
Lake County Sheriff's Search and Rescue and Marine Patrol, assisted by the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office and the Northshore Dive Team, searched the lake's northeast end on Wednesday using side-scan sonar.
McPherson said that the search for the man will continue Thursday morning.
He said a cadaver dog is being brought in to begin a search in the morning. To aid the dog’s effectiveness, the dog will ride the lake's waters in a California Department of Fish and Wildlife low-profile boat.
The search, McPherson added, will be in a high-probability area of the lake.
