Fishermen Rescue 38 Dogs Struggling in Mississippi Lake

Three men save hounds stranded during a fox hunt after they chased a deer into deep waters.

  • The dogs were part of an annual fox hunt and ended up in the lake while chasing a deer.
  • Fishermen Bob Gist, Brad Carlisle, and guide Jordan Chrestman coordinated the rescue.
  • The dogs were spread out and disoriented, many treading water for up to an hour.
  • The rescue required three trips to bring all 38 dogs back to shore safely.
  • Chrestman refused reward money, with Gist calling him the true hero of the rescue.
