It depends on your reasons for maintaining a bond position. I tend to like the indexes because you know exactly what you are getting. There is (virtually) no chance that the manager made a big bet on credit or duration at an inopportune time. If you truly think you have found a superior manager in the bond world that will not do stupid things, then it might be worth departing from the index fund, but I would have a hard time believing that it would be worth bothering with a high grade bond fund.
