6-pack would be neutral since they are filled with fluid that is predominantly water. I think the problem is that when filled the kayak is close to neutral bouyancy, it's all the stuff we take that adds the weight that makes the whole package sink. That is where the noodles come in. Adding them does nothing but add a few ounces to the overall weight when the hull is dry, but they displace water to add bouyancy to the whole package when the hull is filled.
I'm thinking another practice could be to pull the bait tank off the back and stick the pump inside the hatch so it is sucking out the water. Not the best approach, but another arrow in the quiver that could make a difference
