I predict you'll love it. One of the major benefits of kayak angling is the silence; you can literally bump fish before they know you're there. Glide up to cover, drop a lure straight in and...THUMP!

The first surplus item in that list is the 10# anchor. Unless you are fishing white water, that's quite excessive. They make a little 1.5# folding anchor that's just about perfect for kayaks in still to slow water. Look up what an anchor trolley is and add one. It allows you to position the anchor tie-point anywhere from bow to stern, and that in turn allows you to hold the kayak in almost pointed in almost any direction.
