Community organisers searching for the man missing on Lough Ennell are asking people to help.
More volunteers are being called on to join the search for a missing man on a Midlands lake.
The man, who is in his 20s, has been missing on Lough Ennell since Saturday.
A 17 foot fishing boat belonging to the man has since been found abandoned on an island in the lake.
The search operation is being led by Gardaí in Kilbeggan and the Garda Water Unit with assistance from local sub aqua teams, Civil Defence and the Garda Dog Unit.
Anyone with information is being asked to contact Athlone Garda Station.
