It's not necessarily what weapon you're using, but the fact It's only +5. By the time you reach Anor Londo you should have acquired the Large Ember to upgrade your weapon to a potential +10. You also have access to magic, divine, and fire weapons before that point. There's no good reason to not upgrade your spear into something higher. I mean you passed by Andre of Astoria on your way to Sen's Fortress.
