Sorry if this is a ridiculous question. I just recently acquired an Orvis Clearwater 7'9" 5wt rod. Havent fished it yet as I dont yet have the reel I want (I am planning to order a Loomis Venture 5-6wt with the gift certificate I referenced in the swap forum a while back ). Anyway, my question is, I have a brand new Scientific Anglers Mastery Series DT 4 trout line and was thinking about using that line for this rod/reel outfit but wanted to make sure this wouldnt hurt performance too badly. I know its not a high-end rod but i do want to make sure I get the most out of it. Is it a mistake to use a 4wt line on a 5wt rod? Thoughts/insights are greatly appreciated.
