The only problem I have seen in doing this relates to drift rods. I have found that using line higher than the rating on the rod, gives it a mushy feel while drift fishing. If you back down to the middle or low end, for the line rating on the rod, your feel on the drift is a lot crisper. Just my $.o2 worth.
