Whatever you decide now or in the spring, try it before you buy. Or buy the $10 factory second line, then you aren't out a bunch if you only use it some of the time.
I thought I would like to overline my 7.5ft 3wt that is like yours, but I found that it was harder to keep the 4 wt line up and out of the bushes on streams with short casts and bushes. I went back to the 3wt line and it worked better. Since I already had a 4 wt line I wasn't having to buy it just to find out I didn't like it as much as I thought I would.
Good luck!
