Yes, this is the answer to the question, but as a rule, ensure you cut only 6 inches of the butt and start rebuilding it to your needs. Any more than that can ruin your fishing rod's capacity. If you want to cut the tip of the fishing rod, do not cut materials made of carbon fiber bank, these materials have an immediate effect making the fishing rod suitable for fishing. If it is a Fiberglass blank, you can cut a couple of inches and not more than that.
