Seems to me I read or heard somewhere that one can go up one line
weight without a problem. That is, with a 5 weight rod one can use a
6 weight line. Can there be a problem with this??


For my casting style(?) I find it more critical on lighter weight rods.
For example, I have no problem with a 6wt line on a 5wt rod (other than
the normal problems we won't cover here), but I have a harder time with
a 4wt line on a 3wt rod.
