What's the law on alcohol and kayaking??

I see guys having a beer or two and I do myself ... while fishing. So I was wondering what the law actually is... Is it like drinking and driving DUI or riding a bike and drinking a beer?? Because you can get a DUI riding a bike because it's considered a vehicle. Is a kayak considered a vehicle like a bike or a boat? not really sure... And is it different in the harbor than in open water? I know on a boat the passengers can drink but the driver cannot if you're the driver on kayak and is it like riding a bike in Huntington Beach with a beer in your hand on the strand.

I would think no motor would allow you to have a couple beers. But in sure you would have to be a distance from shore since it's against the law on the beach. I'm sure someone will quote the law here .

If I see you drinking I may have to confiscate at least one of your beers

That reminds me, I had my kayak searched last weekend by a DFW warden. I had empty beer cans in the foot area and he said nothing during his search for illegal fish.

Which also reminds me, never consent to a search.
