Life jackets: Vessels less than 16 feet in length, and all canoes and kayaks,
regardless of length, must carry one Type I, II, III, or V Coast Guard-approved life jacket for each person on board. They must be readily accessible and of an appropriate size for the intended wearer.
Adding a small FYI to this - make sure you check your lake regulations if you go inland. Most lakes require the PFD actually be worn at all times.
