The incident occurred in the Muscoot Reservoir near Old Bedford Road in Goldens Bridge, just west of I-684 and Route 22, where state police and emergency responders from Lewisboro and surrounding municipalities are at the scene.

A fisherman in the area reported seeing the capsized fishing boat around 7 a.m. on New Year's Day, Jan. 1. The bodies were recovered shortly afterward.

The victims have been identified as 47- and 48-year-old fishermen from Brooklyn and Staten Island.

It is unclear what caused the boat to capsize.
