This may one of the best internet BB boards when it comes to industry gurus and fly fishing insider / "experts" participation.

Do an archive search on overlining and you will see that the idea of slowing down modern graphite has more than its share of support from many of the experts in the biz.
There only like three guys actually posting on that forum and it is averaging a couple of posts a day. Most of the articles are salt water stuff.

Check out the NA fly fishing forum if you want honest reviews on lots of the latest gear and lots of interesting topics.

Over lining is a personal preference and I am sure some folks are doing it but I can't imagine why. You can buy a moderate action, true to weight rod for 1/4 the price of a modern fast action rod. Why would you buy a $1000 top of the line rod and over line it until it performs like a $200 Redington Classic Trout or Signature Series TFO?
