I don't pay much attention to what the rod says. I go with what works. Some people will say if you "overline" a rod you are trying to make up for a flaw in your casting stroke. When my 8wt throws a 10 or 11 like a rocket I am ok with my flaws. Some rods work great with different size lines and some dont you have to experiment. I have floaters from 8 to 12 if you ever want to try some different size lines let me know.
