Pete David Campbell was 21 when he left his Downey, California home on January 16, 1973, to go lobster fishing near San Clemente Island. His boat was later found abandoned near Catalina Island but there was no sign of Campbell. Extensive searches of the area failed to locate him, and no trace has ever been discovered.

At the time he disappeared Pete was described as a white male with red curly hair, blue eyes, freckles, 6 feet tall and about 155 pounds. Authorities initially suspected drowning, but no conclusive evidence was found to support that theory and the case remains cold.

Did anyone who fished that area in January 1973 or who may have seen an abandoned boat near Catalina Island have information that could help explain what happened to Pete?
