I had a similar experience some years ago. Luckily for me I was with a couple of my peeps. It could have been real serious. What I learned is: ALWAYS, ALWAYS were your PFD, regardless how good of a swimmer you think you are or how macho you think you are. ffice

a trick i learned from "Kiyo" (the legend) after having an incident of taking on water and almost sinking a kayak: if your hull fills with water, disconnect your bait tank intake line from the tank and stick the pump into your hull to pump the water out... (of course only that works if you have your pump dragging alongside the kayak)
