Not sure what you mean by "too heavy." It's simply a matter of personal
preference, but I'd offer that one who had chosen a 3 wt. would
seemingly want to chose a smaller, lighter reel - hey, as always, YMMV -
but if one were given one or both and had no choice, then it would do no
"harm" to the rod to use it. You may be another story, depending on
amount of use and your ability to set things up. If I may - why the
question?

Well, I got a gift certificate for Cabelas and ordered a three forks
3wt. Have a few reels lying around and wondered if the 1494 matched
with the rod, it's the smallest that I have right now. Guess I'll just
wait till it comes and try it out. But I thought I would ask. I have
no idea what "YMMV" means I'm guessing "your motive may vary" or
"yearly murdering my virtuosity"...please enlighten.
