U.S., State reps call for missing-fishermen search to continue

Oct. 27—The families of three missing fishermen have no plans to give up on the search for the crew of the Carol Ann as both a state and U.S. representative call for the U.S. Coast Guard to use all resources to find them.

Dalton Conway, Tyler Barlow and Caleb Wilkinson left Brunswick aboard the Carol Ann, a 31-foot commercial fishing vessel, on Oct. 14 and have not been heard from since. They were set to return from the trip on Oct. 18 but did not, prompting the search that has now stretched on for nearly 10 days.
