Fisherman's body recovered

November 7, 2008 - 9:34AM

Police have recovered the body of a fisherman who went missing near Wellington, north west of Sydney, last month.

Believed to be that of Dubbo man Alan Strong, 53, the body was spotted between the dam and the spillway wall on Lake Burrendong at 7.45am yesterday.

Strong went missing on October 24 while fishing on the lake and his empty boat was found washed ashore on an island later the same day.

A police spokesman said they could not speculate on a cause of death until a post mortem was carried out.
