BAY CITY, Texas - Six fisherman were rescued early Saturday morning after their boat capsized overnight, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
Officials said they received a call from a man who reported his boat capsizing around 3:30 a.m. with him and five other men on board.
The caller and two of the men were able to make it to an unmanned rig safely, but reported three others were missing.
Coast Guard boats and helicopter crews arrived quickly and found the three missing men about six miles off Bay City.
The men were found close to one another, drifting in the water about half a mile from the rig, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
The six men were taken to Station Freeport and are all reported to be in good health.
