Didn't see it. Was it in LJ? I've notices that there are groups of seals that hang together now. Maybe because it's tax season, I don't know but the males seem to be getting more aggressive.

The big males are gathering harems for mating this time of year - and yes, they can get very aggressive defending their turf.

Is it legal to keep a knife on the kayak for stuff like this?

Before you go swinging a knife at a seal you better know what you're getting into. If you don't kill it first shot you could be asking for trouble. These things are master swimmers in the water, if you fall in what's to say the Sea lion isn't going to come back and take a bite out of you. Along with that if anyone sees you doing so you could be in even hotter water. Do what you can to urge them along and avoid battling with them.

Can you keep a knife on a kayak though?

YES it is legal to carry a knife on a kayak..... ...... What you do with it is your decision. Better yet, why wouldn't you carry your knife?
