I'd absolutely spool it and give it a try. So many variables play in to the "fit" (flex of the rod, casting distance, size and weight of flies, blah, blah, blah) but at the end of the day it's all about the feel for you. I underline and overline at will and particularly with one line size, don't give it a second thought.

Hey all,
I gave my brother my 5wt rod, but I have a 5wt sink tip I normally use early in the season for smallies. Do you think it would cast well on a 6wt? Normally I wouldn't underline, but I thought maybe a sink tip would be heavy enough to work. I know I could just try it out, but before I go to the trouble of putting it on a spool, I thought I'd see if it's even worth the effort. Thanks.
