I'm with Mike T. The rodfs seldom are balanced the way you like. One thing is that just moving a single finger forward a little changes the fulcrum point enough so that its more importatnt than a whole boat load of weight in the but. I think with a very long rod its importatnt to try to keep it from being very tip heavy but again its hard. I find that on conventionals , it all in how you grip them that will balance them out and relieve some of the fatigue you get from a tip heavy rod.
