Emergency services cordoned off the area shortly after 10:30am, with the SES putting up screens while the man’s body was recovered from the water. 

Paramedics were unable to revive the man, who has since been identified as a resident of Christie Downs.

“I was going to go fishing with my mate and then we found around halfway a dead body with a skateboard attached to his legs and it looks like fishing net,” one of the boys said.

“And then we saw his pants and a shirt… and then we called our parents,” the other boy added.

A report will be prepared for the coroner.
