I've fished from my wife's nordkapp using a 6 foot spinning rod.  I did it as
an exercise in can this be done.  I paddled into a local bay and just did
some casting.  Not sure what I would have done if I actually hooked 
something ;-)  The toughest part was her boat has the small ocean cockpit 
and it was a good trick to access the tackle box in the rear hatch to 
change lures...

Bart Hauthaway has published a bunch of articles about catching striped
bass from his kayak, keeper striped bass (36" at the time of the article in
Atlantic Coastal Kayaker).
