rod extention - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've had one professionally added to a 8' swimbait rod. For what you want to use that rod for, i'd think it'd be fine. But if you're concerned about keeping the weight of the rod to a minimum and its balance intact, i'd think carefully before moving forward on that. At minimum, you can always remove the extension if you don't like it with minimal "damage" to the rod's butt.
