Moving water
Alone/at night, I suggest a PFD. Especially if your going to stand in nay moving water. Remember at night you can't see what your stepping on, or very little of it. And what was said about the first aid absolutely, one with the anti septic chit in case the same hook you put in your hand was just impaled in a bluefish. Cell phone........in caes no one else mentioned that. And good luck.

Stick a spare neck light behind the plug inserts in your bag, or bring spare batteries and a spare bulb.
Take an extra shirt and pair of pants and keep them in the vehicle, so you don't have to drive home in your skivvies or bare-assed if you take an unexpected swim.

I agree with the truck base camp idea. I do not like using another persons vehicle because I always forget somthing because of the different type of fishing scenarios.
This may sound like a doomsday prediction but.....I know you said you had a knife but try to keep it on your belt so if you do take a dive and your waders fill up (past your wading belt) you can cut them off.
PFDs are only 100$! We spend more money on lures and reels and they will not save your life. Spend the cash on a PFD, your significant other will feel much better!

PERSONALLY- I would go in the day a few times to get the hang of it before any night trips. You can catch plenty of fish until mid-June durring the day.

And even if you don't, a lighter can come in handy (along with a stick of hot melt glue) if your tip comes loose.
