Search suspended for missing father and son fishermen

Rescuers have called off the marine search for a missing father and son after they ******* to return from a fishing trip.

The search for the 47-year-old man and his 17-year-old son was suspended on Thursday afternoon after extensive efforts across three days, NSW Police said in a statement.

The operation had involved officers attached to Lake Illawarra Police District, Marine Area Command, police divers, the police rescue unit, Marine Rescue, the State Emergency Service and Surf Life Saving NSW.

The pairs had left on Monday to fish at Storm Bay near the popular Kiama Blowhole, about 115km south of the city.

Their fishing gear was recovered but there had been no sign or communication from them before the search was suspended about 1.30pm on Thursday.
