That's it post about fins - swimming in and scare the guy to death.

These guys really nailed it. Specific questions would help. Given that, there are some things you really should have:

Protective clothing, including your face and feet:
Feet: (My preference, but you asked) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Shirt: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Head: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Hands: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Face: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Legs: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You should also have a flag/light for safety. Something similar to this is good: http://www.kayakfishinggear.com/prod...d-mighty-mount

As mentioned before, LEASH your rods! Yeah, they DO tend to jump out of your kayak at the most inopportune times! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Protect your phone! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

A small medical kit, food, water, radio (waterproof, marine)... Safety first man. ALWAYS wear your PFD also. Get one with pockets to store your multi-tool and radio. Always keep your tool and radio on you. Rogue wave, or perhaps you get too close to a reef or something, but the wave could knock you out of your boat.
