Yep last I checked my kayak floated as well. I think that's kinda the idea
I don't think Sasha was questioning the fact that kayaks float or that they have to according to the law carry nets.
He was just trying to figure out if it had to be in "Easy Reach" or out on deck.
The law states that the "
landing net in possession or available for immediate use"
Note that that's an "
or" not an "
and"
Anything on or in your kayak is in your possession. Even if you find a Warden that's anal enough to check for a nets, I certainly do not think that a warden is going to cite anyone for having their net in a hatch or not having their net on deck.
