I didn't know I was sleeping. Whats your point. Obviously I dont listen to the mfs or I would only throw an 8 wt line on my "8wt" rod. I dont consider it overlining anyway, alot of different size lines will work on any given rod. I have rods that seem not to handle higher line sizes as well as others. The Stick is no ordinary rod and was designed to throw different lines for different situations, not mainstream at all. And it casts like a cannon when you go up 4 line sizes. No suckers here. All lines should be listed by Grains anyways.
