A 69-year-old Miami man died recently while throwing a cast net to collect bait. The accident happened off of Key Largo. Roberto Romero threw the cast net but lost his footing and fell into the water from the 21 foot boat. When he was recovered, he was dead from drowning, even though his friend jumped in to rescue him. The current took him about 300 feet from the boat before a good-sam (maritime lingo for a "Good Samaritan) picked them up.
