ST. MARTIN PARISH, La. (KLFY) -- Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said enforcement agents successfully rescued two stranded hunters this morning in St. Martin Parish during the winter snowstorm. Agents received information around 7 a.m. about two duck hunters who were stranded in Henderson Lake. Cpl. Jason Marks and Cpl. Michael Blanchard responded to the scene immediately by boat and found the duck hunters in their boat inside their hunting blind around 8:45 a.m., officials said According to the duck hunters, they got to their blind to hunt and when they tried to leave they couldn’t get the motor to start. Agents rescued the duck hunters, transported them back to their truck, and then followed them back to the Lafayette area by truck. Agents tied the hunters’ boat to their duck blind to be picked up at a later date. Hunters are reminded to stay home, stay off the roads and not access any Wildlife Management Areas at this time due to the hazards presented by the winter storm, officials said.
