Default Weight VS drag

I would increase drag for sure. However, have you considered a forward mounted tab or fin vs making the fin larger? Or perhaps just some 3D detailing on the body surface up near Cg.
Enlarging the fin may make the rocket overstable, and thus very prone to weathercocking.
Just my 2 cents.
