One of the fishermen, who was left stranded in Wallis Lake after the pairs boat sank, has died.
The two men – aged 37 and 48 – were left clinging to part of the vessel and other flotation devices for 11 hours, before making it to shore this morning.
Both were treated for hypothermia, however the 48-year-old later died at Manning Base Hospital.
The younger man remains in a stable condition.
The vessel has been located, with NSW Marine Rescue and NSW Maritime assisting to retrieve it.
A report will be prepared for the information of the Coroner.
