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.

Like everyone said, travel light.. If you don't know the area it is a very good idea to go during the day and scope it out. You don't wanna go stranding yourself on some bar with an approching tide or something like that... You say Sat pm, are you going out with MSBA to Plum Island ?

I would definitely check out where you are fishing during the daylight first or at least get there before sunset and fish into the night. I don't know where you are fishing but there are a few places where I fish that are so dark and at times foggy that it is difficult to find my way to and from my spots if I did not know the area so well.

Not sure if I missed it below, but do make sure you have a wader belt. If you do get dunked, you don't want to fill up like a water balloon!!

Be safe, have fun.
