TOWN OF WASHINGTON (WKOW) -- The body of a missing fisherman was found in a Shawano County lake.

After resuming their search Friday morning, the sheriff's department says searchers found the body of 57-year-old Kenneth Robinson of Green Bay.

Authorities began searching Korth Lake Thursday night after an empty fishing boat was found idling in a circle. Officials say Robinson last had contact with someone Thursday afternoon and indicated he would be in by dark.

Robinson's body was found in about 19 feet of water. An autopsy is scheduled for Saturday.
