AAP
A 60-year-old man reported missing on a fishing trip around islands off Carnarvon, Western Australia, has been found safe and well.
The man left in a six metre fibreglass vessel at about midday on Monday to meet a friend off the Bernier and Dorre Islands, about 50km west of the coast.
The friend did not see the man and returned to port in the afternoon, finding the man's vehicle and trailer still in the carpark.
