A CPW spokesperson said it was a long search. The first call came in around 8 p.m. Friday, saying that a boat had overturned. The body wasn't recovered until after 6 p.m. on Saturday.

CPW tells KRDO13 they will not identify the body and will wait for the Pueblo County Coroner's Office to complete their investigation.

At this time, officials with CPW believe none of the three men aboard the vessel were wearing life jackets.
