Now I got yak, what are the essentials I need to get? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Picked up Stealth 12 on Wednesday in very good condition for $400...stoked. Anyways came with cheaper pfd, oars, seat. I got a $20 off coupon for Sports Chalet and $200 gift card for bass pro. Looking to hit a lake for my first soak/test drive and looking to see what essentials I "NEED" to get.

Saw Sports Chalet has bilge pump for $19.99, so that takes care of that coupon

. Looking to get a nice pfd, some nice oars, and nice seat. So I'd hit Bass Pro for that. Recommendations? Doesn't need to be the most expensive, but something good for a rookie like me and that will make my first float that much more enjoyable.

Also any recommendations on anything else is a "must have" before I go out?

Thanks for all the help.
