What should you do first if you fall into cold water while hunting from a boat?

Swim to the nearest shore
Attempt to get back into the boat
Signal for help
Keep clothes on to trap warmth

The correct answer is: Keep clothes on to trap warmth

If you fall into cold water while hunting from a boat, the correct response is to keep your clothes on to trap warmth. This is important because clothing, even when wet, can provide some insulation against the cold water and help retain body heat. Removing wet clothes can increase heat loss and accelerate the onset of hypothermia, which can be life-threatening in cold water. Therefore, keeping your clothes on should be the first step to help maintain body temperature and increase your chances of survival until help arrives.
