The body of Stephen Ring was found in the water at Carrigfoyle Lake, a popular recreational area near Wexford town.
The area at the lake where Mr Ring’s body was found yesterday afternoon remains sealed off.
A man in his 40s and a woman in her 30s were arrested yesterday.
They are being detained at a garda station under Section four of the Criminal Justice Act.
Mr Ring’s body was taken to hospital in Co Waterford and it is expected a post-mortem examination will be carried out later today.
