Things can go wrong on the water, wear a pfd, if in waders wear a wading belt, have communication equipment, ie VHF and keep a bildge pump where you can get to it.
Nice Save Greg.

I have one of those Kayaks with a bait tank that fits into the rear scupper hole. I once blocked the drain hole not knowing it. The back of the yak slowly started to fill with water. I didn't notice it right away (still dark/grey light), but the water falling out of the overflow of the bait tank didn't sound right and when I turned with a light to see what was going on, the back of the yak was at sea-level and I freaked.

After unplugging the pump, I realized the plugged drain hole and 3 minutes later I was good, the water drained. I checked the middle hatch, hardly water inside. The seal between bait-tank and kayak kept water from entering the hull.

I'd be real curious to know how this happened. Any fixes?
