In need of advice...about PFD...?!?!?!

Hey there Stan and forum members!
So, right off the bat, obviously I'm new to the forum. Also, new to fishing at Lake Wilson. Well anyways, thank goodness I told my boss the truth..that I wanted the night off so I could go fishing all day! His initial response was that I could have at least lied about it, (great boss eh?) but he also mentioned I needed a license before I go so I immediately began my research. I came across this website http://hawaii.gov/dlnr/dar/regs/ch62.pdf. It mentions on page 3 number 7 that I need a PFD. So my question is...SERIOUSLY? Is this absolutely necessary? We're just planning on fishing from the shore not a boat. I've never heard of a rule like this before! Has anybody fishing from shore been asked, cited or fined by DLNR for this? I would really love some feedback of any kind about this.
Thank you!
P.S. I just wanna add...Stan, Let's Go Fishing just can not be re-created to it's former glory when you and Harry sat in those iconic chairs! It's just my own personal opinion, no offense to anyone I hope. Just know that you're greatly admired and still have loyal fans from back then!
